    I would have given four stars, except the software is not reliable. Direct file transfer works better.

    HD works as expected. Software for file backup is not very feature-rich. Just the basics.

    Unfortunately did not unwrap the two units up until well after the return period was over. One of the units' plastic case was not properly aligned over the ports in the rear, creating interference for the power cable and usb cable.

    My whole point in buying this was to automatically backup everything on my hard drive. It didn’t. Some things are and some aren’t and I have no clue why or how to make it backup everything. Not happy with it. Bought a portable hard drive which did exactly what I needed. I don’t recommend this.
