    It is exactly as they say, easy. Easy to set up, easy to carry around, even in the box, and at 5T it has ample room for most backups.

    Just what I needed to save my PS4 gameplay data. Large storage in a small package. Use the second one to backup our computers.

    Not super fast but a huge amount of storage in a small, convenient footprint. I’m knocking of a star since it’s not USB-C but otherwise, this thing is a bargain.

    Worked better than expected as an external drive. You can play games from your steam library right off of it, no problem. The only issue is that it goes to sleep when it isn't in use for a while, so it may take a moment to wake up again if you come back. For example, if you are playing something, pause the game, and then come back in 30 minutes then it may take a few seconds before you can resume while you wait for the hdd to wake up.
