    Purchased to use as a backup for my Mac computer. Easy to set up, but I've only used it once. Nothing wrong with product, just not as convenient for me as using a flash drive.

    The Geek Squad came to my rescue when I needed to add fans to my Computer tower that I use for gaming. They recommended having a backup on this external hard drive. So glad I followed their recommendation. The work done on my tower was very professional and fantastic.
