    Reasonably priced external drive. Instructions were not clear that drive had to be reformatted to work with my MacBook/Time Machine which necessitated a call to tech support. But other than that, no issues

    This device is small - and unlike the last one I owned does not require an outside power source. It has been simple to pack in the computer case as we've travelled

    Great drive. Plug & play. Fast. I don't use the built-in software because I just needed it for the space for pictures and don't need encryption.

    I wanted to have drives with different colors so that I could keep track of separate backups. Unfortunately this very nice deep blue color was not available in the macintosh formatted drives. So, I reformatted and it works well with OS X Time Machine.
