    Easy to use and high capacity. A bit bulkier than I'd like but it can still fit into a pocket. Western Digital quality Made in Thailand, not China.

    It was very easy to use. You just have to re-format the drive for a Mac through the computer's utilities. Once done, it found the drive and started backing up right away.

    Using drive for Time Machine back-ups. Faster and smaller than the 3TB Seagate unit it replaced. Excellent small unit. Does not have a stand, nor does it have non-skid external surfaces. Would purchase again.
