    I'm a retired database administrator so I am concerned about backing up my data, This is easy to use and it works well. 5gb holds a lot of data and the transfer time of data to it is quick.

    We purchased these external hard drives for our College age daughters. They are able to back up and save all their needed files and photos in one drive. This allows for piece of mind about valuable items saved.

    This is a 2nd purchase as the first one was a couple of years ago. Both work as intended to serve as off-site back-ups of my computer back-up drive. I exchange them every couple of months at my son's.

    Amazingly amazing hard drive. Everyone should own one of these. This is the best thing since sliced bread, except it isn’t edible, unless you need to ingest plastic and circuitry.

    Pocket sized 5tb! What more could you ask for? This thing is so small, comes with 1 cable and has 1 port which has me a bit nervous, what if it breaks?? Oh well, maybe I can find a case for it?

    Bought as an external hard drive for my Xbox One. Games work flawlessly off of this hard drive. I actually think they load faster from this drive than the internal one that came on my xbox
