Review is more than function
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far the unit performs as it expected ask me again in a couple of years. I've not forgotten this was a "bait and switch purchase" advertised as a special open to purchase on a certain date and time, at the time designated it was "sold out" HOWEVER we do have this same one at a higher price. Enough said!

One out of two Defective
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Did Not EasyStore
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
