I am using this as an external Time Machine drive (4TB, USB attached) for a 3 TB iMac. I had two computers sharing a time capsule (TC) and realized the TC space was inadequate after a disk failure. Time machine back ups are now consistent, quick (TC was over Wifi), and reliable. I feel much better.

The storage device was easy to install, has a huge capacity, and some nice security features. I was surprised to see that it even has auto drive back-up, too. Very pleased with the purchase.

There is nothing more important than being able to back up my video files immediately after doing a job. This is the best, fastest and the most economical way for me with mr very large high definition video files.
The unit is very quiet and does not interfere with my ability to audio.

I purchased this one recently and it's perfect! I still have an older, smaller one that I purchased five years ago and it is still running strong! No issues whatsoever. This drive has exceeded expectations and outlived many other brands that I've purchased. I highly recommend this drive!

This hard drive is big, and fast. It sped up disk installs and loading times for all games stored on it vs the stock internal hard drive. Please note that your XBOX ONE should recognize it as 3.6T or so after it is formatted, so don't buy this expecting to see 4T when you plug it in.

I purchased this hard drive as a backup for my laptop. I wanted it so that if something happened to my computer, then at least I still would have all my information. I set the drive to make a backup each night and it does so flawlessly. It is very compact and so far well worth the money. I password protected the drive so that the information on it is safe.

I purchased this to use as a Time Machine backup on my Mac. The box says that it can be used with a Mac but it has to be reformatted. It wasn't quite that easy. The Mac wouldn't recognize it at all, but after researching the issue, I found that I had to start up with the disk that came with my Mac, and use Disk Utility to format AND write zeros to the entire disk (to get rid of the pre-installed Windows backup software). For a 4TB drive, that took a full day.
Once the drive was formatted for Mac, it worked fine.
