    I wish I waited a few weeks because BestBuy is selling a 5TB External for the same price, same brand. I guess timing is everything. I could've had an extra 3T.

    This will easily run off your USB port from your computer without any external power source. It is not real big but it is cheaper than SD cards for the space.

    Product worked as expected. Western digital and other hard drive companies have had scandals for which drive technology they use in their hard drives. As far as I can tell this appears to be the better technology in it.
