    No problem with the external hard drive, but just because you sell me something YOU have the cable for does not mean the cable therein in the package has any value to me with a MacBook Air. Buyer beware ahead of time if you care.

    So far this has worked very well. I struggled to get it to work with my mac using the software that comes with the drive, but then read that it's easier to use the mac to reformat external hard drives for time machine.
