    Helped me make more room to install games for PS4. Very simple setup. Plug in and PS4 automatically formats the drive for use. Games load smoothly. No issues whatsoever.

    Found this as a clearance item. Guess people care about the color of a backup drive! Easy to install software and quick backup of my 8yr old Samsung laptop running Win10.

    I thought it would be slower to transfer all my design files from my old laptop but it didn’t! It was tricky making it work on a mac though.

    Love the small footprint yet versatile hard drives. Simple connection and you can reformat to your type of computer operating system, i.e. Windows or Mac OS.

    What can I say, looks expensive so find it on sale. Picked red because I like the color and I am able to distinguish from the black one I use for another computer.

    This replaced a much clunkier 256 MB brick that I had to plug into electric power plus my computer's USB port. I'm going to buy another one for my partner's machine.

    Backup software is no longer valid, so be prepared to spend some time with customer support if you don't already know how to set up a backup in WIN10. Otherwise, the drive works great.
