    Got this to use as a backup drive. I am a photographer and have a ton of photos to keep safe. This does the job. Easy to use. Install software, setup backup and you're done. The software has really been updated.

    If you have a lot of people on you network like I do. This makes a good low power NAS with a raspberry pi 4 Just make sure to block Microsoft from your pi 4 not the files on the NAS just the OS and it will run like a clock... youtube has some videos on this. This is going to be my backup NAS so it's only going to run about 2 times a week. I just hope this is not an SMR drive if it is it's going back I will be testing it soon

    So far so good. Had to have more storage as three teens and Dad can't come to agreement on what to uninstall. The amount of space for the money seems very reasonable. Install was simple.
