    Works well. Took me a bit of time to figure out how to backup the files because no instructions were included. Still works as expected.

    I prefer these smaller portable external hard drives over the bigger ones. The bigger ones always seem to have issues. These work by just plugging into the usb, no external power needed. They are fast and efficient too.

    I've been using these Passport drives for years. I often will buy two at a time just to have a backup if needed, but I love these little bus powered storage drives.

    Very good drive for back ups. I first bought a 1 TB SSD that was fast, but couldn't back up my I Mac Pro. I got this HD, 4 TB for it for a great value. I would recommend this hard drive for any one needing backups for time capsule. Haven't had any bad issues with it either.
