    I bought this for extra storage for my security system and Xbox1. Works pretty good so far. What is stupid is it is more expensive for different colors. That's just dumb. Also, the "tech person" is an idiot and couldn't even describe what I was trying to buy.

    I purchased this new hard drive back up because my old one was no longer supported & giving me problems with the latest Mac update. The smaller size is ridiculously fantastic!

    [Employee of bestbuy] Works perfectly and is very easy to set up. The only downside is the USB-A port that it uses. Would be nice to see a USB-C port.

    This has been a lifesaver for my kids laptop computer. This allowed us to dump many documents and pictures off the devise so that it would free up space and run properly.

    Bought for use with a Mac. Requires software download to use, able to secure with password. Once up and running storage is easy, most hassle I've had with first using an external storage device, but functions normally after.
