RESEARCH BEFORE USE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.IT IS REALLY DIFFICULT TO USE IF YOU HAVE A MAC AND PC, AS YOU WILL HAVE TO FORMAT OR PARTITION IT (AS A GEEK SQUAD MEMBER SAID) TO WORK WITH BOTH. APPARENTLY, IF YOU DON'T YOU WILL HAVE TO ERASE ALL FILES PRIOR TO IT. IT WAS CONFUSING FOR ME AS MANY THE EMPLOYEES DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO MAKE IT WORK EITHER AND I HAD TO BUY 3 TO FINALLY FIGURE IT OUT BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT SHOW ON MY COMPUTER WHEN I PLUGGED IT IN! IT WOULD BE NICE IF IT COULD JUST AUTOMATICALLY WORK WITH ALL COM\

Nice product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a nice product I found it a little hard to set it up because It didn't have any instructions besides plugging it to the computer and power outlet it took me a little while to figure it out and find instructions after it loaded itslelf but it seems to work okay until now will see, most things don't show all the problems or defects they have in the first few days so I'll wait and see.
