    Little puzzled over the software they wanted me to download... big, big, big files. All I wanted was a drive to store photos... works fine for that. I have a 5TB version of this for backup running their 'old' software and this 2TB for storing photos running no software, just acting as a peripheral drive.

    Works great. Copied a lot of data for work. I had 1.8Tb to copy and it ran out of space just before the final files copied so it’s more like 1.8TB useable space.

    Purchased for PS4 storage and it works perfect. Games take up too much space nowadays and I needed this to allow me to store more than one game. I have no issues and there is no lag.

    A great compact hard drive that gets the job done. So far haven't had any issues with it yet and seems to be working as it should. I was surprised by how small it is in real life.
