    Average Portable Hard Drive

    This product burns out easily. If you use it constantly it will become corrupt and you will loose all your files. This product requires a backup storage method because you never know when it will stop working. I purchased two within a three month time span and they both burned out. Purchasing the insurance only covers the hard drive not your data.

    The drive shows 3.67 T memory on laptop & got feedback from customer care that on windows it shows like that but on Mac it will show 4T. Also came with some passport folder which is not my item category. Anyway returned this item. Lot of time wasted in purchasing setting up speaking with customer care & return.
