    Had to purchase this to transfer all my files from old laptop as new laptop only had half the capacity of old one unbeknownst to me. it's a little annoying having to keep it plugged in, but I can unplug it if I'm not working on files in the drive.

    I had this device on my old computer. I decided since I was happy with how it worked on the old computer, I'd get one for the new computer. It has worked well so far.

    Using it as a backup drive (Time Machine) for my M1 Powerbook. No troubles at all. My only wish is that it connected with USB-C. I did reformat it before I used it and that was a breeze.
