    The external works perfectly and transfer files quickly with USB 3.0 technology. Can also use the built in software to create scheduled backups.

    Does what it was intended to do! Still you can find more deals out there with larger capacity if you need to.

    Picked this up for my son to attach to his gaming system as an extHD, and he loves it! Was purchased for much cheaper than the brand versions.

    This is great. I now own two. Easy to store and back up data. Small enough to put in my purse. Just plug it in and install and you are ready to go.

    Works fantastic! I use it for my school media projects. It took me a couple of days to set it up by reading through the instruction manual but was able to do it much quicker when a professor who also uses these helped. Can not be used on both Pc and MAC very easily.

    Seems fine however I'm using it to as a secondary back up for camera system. First try nothing there and smart camera system alerted me of such and had me reformat. Hard drive led now blinks differently. Still need to do acid test for full functionality.

    I'm hesitant to use external HD like these because I've had issues in the past where I've lost so many important files. So far I have not had any issues with this drive. If they run a sale on it, I'll definitely buy another.
