    This 4GB external drive is great for saving all the data collected on the computer. I only connect it when doing a backup. That way if a crash occurs or an infection, I can wipe the computer, rebuild to Op sys and reload the data without loosing anything except the little not backed up. This saved me when the old computer crashed and was not recoverable. I just accessed the backup drive with the new computer and am back up and running.

    I needed more storage space. This was cheaper. And, gave me the space as opposed to buying a larger cloud drive.

    Excelent hard drive

    Mainly use this speedy drive for downloaded movies and music. At first I made the mistake of plugging it into a USB 2.0 instead of 3.0 port and of course, you can tell the difference in speed. Don't use the included software to back up anything because I don't need it. I use it strictly for housing movies and music and for that, it's excellent. One reviewer stated that this drive needed to be formatted to NTFS but that was not the case for the my purchased drive.

    Had this for about 6 months now and it works flawlessly with my Mac Time Machine settings. I was able to segment the drive easily into two individual drives of 2TB each. One used as my Time Machine drive and one used as my storage drive. The USB 3.0 connection is fast...I can work off of this drive almost as quickly as the drive in my computer. Highly recommend!!
