    Easy once I got the right unit. During my first visit the attendant gave we the wrong device, I notice it before I opened it so took it back and ordered the correct one online and picked it up when I took the wrong one back. All is working well at this point.

    I was looking forward to having this 5tb external HD, but due to the covid health issues, BestBuy was exemplary in working out delivery issues.

    Excellent Option for backup and price. Isn't the fastest drive but will get the job done. I'm using mine as extra long time term storage. Con, I couldn't get the encryption working on this drive. Might not be supported.

    Had to reformat after loading some pics. I'll be really upset if it happens again after I delete all my pics off my phone. I purchased this to store my pics safely!

    Hard drive works well for backup but not the fastest so probably 5k RPM drive motor. Would be nice if they gave specifications of drive but I just wanted it as a backup so no big deal.

    I’ve used this brand for my MacBook Pro before and getting it set up is such a hassle. If you plan on using this for any kind of sharing or use outside of stationary personal use, check a different brand for Mac because this isn’t worth the stress and time it took to finally get it operational.
