    The physical size of the drive was smaller than I expected. The 2TB was more than enough space to save photos and videos that I had stored in the cloud and multiple different flash drives. Software was easy to install and works great with my Google drive. Only downside is the software is a bit temperamental and closes everytime you click out of the program.

    Purchased this as a Mac Time Machine backup drive.

    Installation as a Mac Time Machine backup drive couldn't be easier. Plug it into a USB slot and MAC OS sees it and asks if you want to use it for Time Machine. Reply Yes and you are done. If you don't need 2 GB for backups and want to split it, use disk manager to create 2 partitions, and tell Time Machine which one to use. You can format the second partition and use it as extra storage. Great for people with smaller SSD storage for storing pictures, documents or whatever.

    Very good external hard drive. Good performance, nice security features. My one complaint is that it gets warm over long use. This doesn't seem to affect its performance, but I worry about how it might affect longevity. That aside, I've been very happy with this.

    Simple to install. It is fast and quiet. Power cord detaches so it won’t get damaged during transport.

    The pretty color, slim design, and quick function of this external hard drive make it the perfect item for me. At 2TB, it holds tons and tons of pictures from my DSLR camera and I'm not concerned about running out of space. Would definitely purchase again in the future.

    Hasn't yet had the change to withstand the test of time, but it is well built and gives no issues. Work bought a prebuilt computer that doesn't have space for internal drives and this is used as an expansion to that systems storage. Has been being used for a server and is doing great.

    This 2 Terabyte External Has been extremely helpful in saving all of my collegiate documents. It works for all computer devices with a 3.0 usb and usb c connect. It worked on my Mac and Chromebook, newer versions. Careful though, there is the option to erase the drive during setup on a Mac.

    Bought it because I am having problems with my Mediasonic DVR. 1st the manufacturer said to get a 2TB usb powered hard drive, so I got this drive. Not fixing the problem they then recommended an internal harddrive with an enclosure. Returned this drive because as I belived my problems with the DVR are not drive related. I have a couple of these drives and otherwise qiute happy with them.

    Honestly I didn't expect this to work as much as it does, but I bought it for my Xbox and it has been such an amazing help. I have downloaded all my games and more with almost no issues, the only one being that the game cover on your My Games section will be blank instead of showing the picture, but it still displays the name. Other than that this is an amazing price for the amount of storage you'll get with no real hiccups!

    I needed this for a specific reason and I walked in and all the young men customer facing reps were direct and pleasant. Walk in and walked out in less than 10mins at the Brooklyn location. Thank you so much! Had no problems with connecting it to my computer and downloading everything I needed.
