    After I started using Time Machine, my older backup disk got a little scary. For one awful moment, it seemed as though all my photos were gone! I ran to Best Buy, was helped by very capable people and had this up and running by nightfall. It seems very efficient, and after a month or so, there have been no problems. Much better than exposing one's data to a "cloud" storage!

    I bought this to backup my MacBook Pro and it is perfect. I did not have to do anything but plug it in and it did not take very long at all to do a full backup of my computer. It is quiet and does not seem to take up a lot of memory because I do not notice my computer running any slower during a backup. Great product for the price!
