  • The Importance of a Good External Hard Drive

    We all know the importance of a good external hard drive. I believe the Passport 2TB to be exactly that. I purchased the hard drive in Jan 2020 and what I really love is that I don't have to worry or keep checking to see if backup is occurring because I get periodic messages that backup is occurring. Very nice!
