    I haven’t really tried to use it yet. I like that Best Buy put everything from my old computer on it and all my pictures are together. One of my retirement projects is to organize all my picture and give copies to my children on a hard drive.

    Its a portable hard drive. It's hard, and portable. I put it in my car, it refused to buckle up and drive though. Was slightly upset, but overall happy.
