    This is the first time I have ever had an external hard drive on my computer. I was not sure how it would be to connect with my MAC, but was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I have not yet tried to recover any information. When I click on the icon on the desktop it has information stored from every day since I installed it.

    I bought three of these for each of my adult children for Christmas 2020. I wanted my kids to have all the years of family memories which included twenty five years of videos, music and different documents. The process was simple and now my kids have access to whatever they want when we are no longer around. Plus lots of extra memory left over so that can add things as they want.

    I bought this to store video captured from my GoPro, and so I can free up storage in my microSD card. This one works well and meet my expectation. The price is good compared to other brand and if you are lucky you can buy it at a discount sometimes at Bestbuy.

    I like the product. It didn't require extensive study to use it. It used a very common sense approach. I was surprised that it was so easy to use. I followed your "geek squad" advise and had no surprises.
