    Plenty of space to back up files. We have had no issues with back up or retrieving files so it seems to be working just fine. No complaints at all.

    Nice compact design. Great storage with 5 TB, you shouldn't be filling it up for a very long time. Speed is better than average, but not blazing fast. I would look for SSD for speed.

    The product did not come with clear initial set up instructions or an easy way to warranty the product. I went to the website to figure it out and to download the necessary tools. Once setup, the product works very well.

    Purchased a portable hard drive to save important documents. I keep the hard drive in a safe deposit box so I don't use it much since it is in "storage".

    Can never have enough space on my laptop. Keep important large docs on an External Hard Drive to keep the 'Memory' on my laptop 'clear' to operate faster.
