    Bought this on sale and saved $50 so it was a good deal for that price. That said, it worked as expected initially, but then I upgraded my MBA and it wouldn’t work with TM after the upgrade. So not sure if it was an issue with the OS or the hardware, so giving it a 3 star review because it was worth the sale price and did the job initially that it was purchased for.
