    Just as advertised. Works great! Went for the 5TB because the deal was unbeatable and I'm trying to condense storage for family photos/ videos. Plugged item into computer and it started up perfectly. Would definitely recommend!

    I bought this hard drive to download years and years of family photos and keepsake memories. The holding capacity is amazing so I don't have to have a bunch of them. The price was great. Very easy to use. No problems. Quick and looks great, too.

    Fits all of my videogames and has plenty of room. With the updates needed on games and the excess memory that they need in this era (a little ridiculous but nonetheless), this device works extremely well and is very easy to work with.

    By far the best affordable and reliable quality portable HD option available. I purchased this to upgrade my 2yr old 1TB HD that was running low on space and now with 5TB I have enough space for everything!

    This unit packs A LOT of storage into a pocket size form factor. My normal strike price for a 4TB pocket drive is around $100. When I saw this 5TB drive on sale for $90 just before Black Friday, I grabbed it.

    I needed more space as I store thousands of pictures on my computer. This is just what I needed. I can take it with me and use it on other family member's computers so I don't have to take mine everywhere I go. Love it!

    Great portable hard drive for the sale price. I have been using a few of these 5TB's and have not had any issues with them over the past year. I use them frequently for excel files and pictures. I can recommend these without hesitation.
