    This was the perfect solution to transfer all the contents from my old laptop (that died) onto. It is easy to set-up and use, lightweight when I need to bring along in my backpack.

    This is a compact external storage unit we purchased to mainly store our many cherished photos on although we have used for some documents also. Takes up little space and attractive looking.

    Had an older external hard drive which I used for back up, but I had to remember to manually back up files. Now, it's all done automatically. Have had no issues with this product.

    I buy these for my employees that work offshore and they are able to withstand being in bags, moved around often, and the environment that would challenge durability. No complaints!

    These are the best hard drives around. The only time to get new ones is if they run out of space or extras are needed. We’ve used these heavily for years and they always have worked.
