    I needed to make a backup of one of my kids' PCs so we could perform a fresh install of Windows 11. I was planning on buying Acronis software to handle the imaging. However, this drive came with the software we needed. So, it saved me some $$.

    Upgraded from an older Toshiba that I loved and this one works as expected. Faster, slimmer and all around nice to look at.

    Easy to use, self powered. Prior versions have run for years without issues. This comes in a good choice of colors so its easy to differentiate it from other drives. I use it the rsync the user data and the App Data that Best Buy Geek Squad won't backup when they do work. Just plug it in, it draws power from the USB interface.

    Had an old pc that can only boot in safe mode. Was able to transfer all of my documents and pictures to this and transfer to my new drive. Super tiny, and the bright red makes it easy to find.

    I purchase this to save all my pictures. docs anything imported (but I also save them on cloud too as a back up). I've had it for over a yr now & no problems at this time. although I use it very rarely, mainly back up my data ones every 3 months. its a good hard drive I would recommend it only if you cannot afford a SSD hard drive instead. SSD hard drives are more reliable, fast transfer rate & longer lasting, from what I have read in the reviews.
