    This hard drive is superb. I thought I needed to replace the laptop. The hard drive saved having to replace it and it works like a new laptop now!

    As I got ready for a trip to Canada, I needed a drive to store the videos I planned to take. I found this drive, checked out the reviews, and found it at Best Buy for $49! I remember buying two 300MB disc drives back in 1977 for a mini computer we had in the office, and paid almost $120,000! And we had to make sure the computer operators didn't wear nylon underwear and touch the cabinets, or they would take down our system. I'm glad those days are gone. No moving parts, no special environment, and no $120,000 price tag. No - just a fast, portable lightweight 2 terabyte drive for 49 bucks. Sold! Now that I'm home, I have it attached to my MacBook Pro and use it as my primary drive for Time Machine. I used to backup through our network to a central drive but found our network was so overloaded by all of our computers backing up, they knocked Alexa devices offline from time to time. This is easier, cheaper, and frees up the network for the stuff I really need.

    I bought this for the sole purpose of connecting to my PS4 so that I could get more storage to keep all of the games that my boys have. This was a simple solution. It only needs to be plugged in via usb cable (included) to the PS4 and doesn't require a power cord as well. With it being usb 3.0 it is compatible with the PS4. Once connected, formatting was super simple and quick. Would highly recommend this product if you need more storage for a video game system.

    Works great, love it! Am able to download and play Steam games on it which saves space on my computer! I've bought one for each of my computers because switching one back and forth to move files caused it to become corrupted (I think because one computer is Windows 8 and the other is Windows 10) but there was an easy fix on Youtube to recover the files so it's all good.

    My previous computer recently crashed. I did not have any backup for it. The IT firm was able to save some of the data from it, but by no means all of it. The tech strongly urged me to get a backup device for my new computer. I found this unit on sale. It was easy to install and was up and running in minutes. Now I have a new back up once an hour, 24/7.

    I brought this portable hard drive to back up all my videos and photos. 2TB is a very good size, and I love it supports USB 3.0, so it takes a shorter time to transfer files between my computer to this portable hard drive. It is not very big, and it is light to carry around.

    I had four OS external hard drives I needed to transfer to a Windows hard drive. This has enough capacity to combine all into one, with plenty of room for future files. Works great and I love the compact size.
