    My son needed a hard drive for school and to back up his files on his computer. This was on sale and it was just the right size. We love that we don't need to have it plugged into the outlet in order for it work. Is small go he can take it to school without adding extra bulk to his backpack. It's also a 3.0 so he gets to access his movies and pictures at a faster rate. This is also a click and drop so all you have to do is drop files to it and it saves it automatically.

    I use this drive to backup my IT learning materials (which is why I didn't get the encryption option for $5 more at time of purchase). This drive is reliable and works quite well.
