Easy to use. The computer recognizes the full capacity and works smoothly. I purchased to use with a bluray player, but the player will not recognize anything over 2T.

It is a little slower than my other externals but not too bad. Otherwise it has been working very well as my storage space for a seafile server.

If it had a switch to turn it on was dependable to be available when the computer turned on rather than having to reset it I would be much happier

This product does what its supposed to do. The only problem is - the instructions aren't abundantly clear. I watched more than one YouTube video trying to figure out how to use it.
