So Far So Good
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got this drive due to running out of space on my 2T drive. It functions via USB-3 in a standard fashion. I have just two comments at this time (and I'll add more later if anything changes). (1) All power to this drive comes through the USB cable -- it does not have a separate power cable -- so it will be a relatively constant drain on your PC's power. (2) the USB cable is only about 18 inches long (at most); in other words, it is very short. If you have a long reach from a USB port to the place you want to put this drive, this drive may not be for you. I'm seeing a lot of reviews on failures. No issues so far.

Great for Time Machine backup
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What I love is that this drive is bus powered and makes a perfect Time Machine backup drive for my iMac. Even though this comes Windows formatted by default, when you assign the drive for Time Machine purposes, the MacOS will guide you through in reformatting it. This drives reduces the need for a power cord which reduces the clutter to your desk.

Ms
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This external hard drive was exactly what I needed. It was my first time purchasing one. The sales associate helped me select one based on what I said I needed and this was more than enough. It will last me far longer than what I was originally looking to buy.

good quality.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had product for a long time and it still works great. My computer does not have a lot of space to save things, and I also use different drives for different things. One for photography. This one for my stories and research. Makes it easier to find everything. And if my computer ever breaks or gets a virus, I won't have to worry about it since it's all saved on this external hard drive.
