    Good for an external backup of my desktop files. Has a lot of options and feature that were initially overwhelming for a non-IT expert. Wish it had better, more simple instructions on how to set up routine automatic backups. But, after watching some YouTube videos its was fairly easy to figure out; and once initially done it is fairly straightforward after that.

    Upgraded from an older Toshiba that I loved and this one works as expected. Faster, slimmer and all around nice to look at.
