    Using this for a time machine backup. It was formatted to work with windows, but if you’re comfortable using disk utility it’s easy to format for Mac and save the extra $10 or so from getting the ones formatted for Macs our of the box. I did not use the included software as time machine works better. Seems pretty quick on file transfers, just make sure the port you plugged it into is also usb3 to utilize those speeds

    No issues, but software won't let you auto update with Windows 10. I think there is a fix now, but it's a hassle.

    Great Backup Drive I purchased this 1TB External USB Portable Hard Drive on 07/02/2017 and I am still using it to this day. This has been a great backup unit for multiple computers and the high capacity memory works well for storing a lot of files. It's "plug-and-play", and a great way to keep all of your data backed up in case of a hard drive crash. Highly recommended.
