      We have not been totally happy with this as a backup. Software runs all the time takes up a lot of memory. Took it awhile to start working.

      This is an really nice product. Copying is really fast. It’s like having a larger hard drive when you need one.

      This is working as I was hoping it would. Using it for external storage, and not as a backup device, so I have not tried out the backup software package. I wish there was more documentation on it though.

      hooking this up to my xbox 1 x and it works well, not the fastest external drive but does the job, good enough.. only issue is that is very tall. needs a lot of space to stand upright.

      Good performance. The Mac loses contact often so I have to replug in the USB to initialize the unit.

      I thought it would be easy as just plugging it in and downloading the data onto the drive. Proved to be difficult since we had to configure it for our mac. Once it was up and running, it was good to go.
