Customers are saying

    Solid state, easy to use out of the box, all the space I needed to backup a laptop I was replacing. Having a local backup that I could access without was my goal in buying this, and got to say it has worked like a charm.

    I love these external hard drives. They haven't failed me yet and I use them in a pretty harsh environment onboard our sailboat in the Caribbean (salty, hot and humid). Highly recommend and I'll keep using them moving forward.
