    I was running out of space on PS4 and had to either delete games or buy a new system, out of the question lol, so I thought why not get an extended storage device and I chose this one and it works great, definitely recommend this for any looking for more storage on any device!

    Great portable hard drive! It reads/writes at a good speed, and very well built. It is durable and a cool looking designed. 1TB should be enough for most people unless you're in the video making industry. I am completely satisfied.

    I have owned this drive for about 5 months. I use this device to perform weekly selective backups of my desktop. So far it has worked great. The drive is fast and has been reliable. I ended up ditching the included Acronis True Image backup software for something more configurable. Ended up going with Imperius Backup. Being only 1TB makes it a little tight regarding space. Since I am doing mirror selective (everything except apps) backups of a 1TB drive it has served its purpose well. If you want to keep multiple full images or incremental backups, you might want to go with something with a higher capacity. I would recommend this drive to others.

    Bought this device to back up a Mac prior to transferring files to new computer. When I got home I found the connection not compatible with Mac. Would have been a useless trip had I not encountered this before. Otherwise, devise easy to use.
