    Use it as a back up on my computer so that I can retrieve data if I want to load it on another computer. Has its own software that has to be loaded to access the hard drive info.

    Works as advertised and is a great affordable option for storage. 4 stars instead of 5 because it's not cutting-edge with the sleekest design nor fastest read-write speeds. But it gets the appropriate job done for the price point.
