    A little pricier than it should be for only 2TBs, but can't complain that much. Where else are you going to get a decent hard drive quickly these days in person when you need it? If you have time order online. But it's a dependable drive. Good for everyday storage tasks.

    Using this for a backup. I didn't originally plan to purchase a portable, but got upgraded when BB couldn't find the one I came in for which was supposed to be in stock. It's nice that it doesn't require an external power supply.

    Purchased a 2nd external drive as backup protection. Had one of these a few years back and it was bumped off my desk and stopped working. This way I store files on both of my external hard drives to ensure I do not loose any data.

    I use it as an extra hard drive for my old ps4. Transfers data between the console and the drive at a slow rate. But the games are downloaded and written on the hard drive pretty fast.

    Got this originally for a ps4 backup external drive. Worked like a charm. Now i just use it for additional storage. Love it. Powered by the USB port connection so no external supply needed. No errors and working like a champ so far.
