    I use this portable hard drive on my 2022 MacBook Air M2 chip as a Time Machine Backup. Transfer speeds are fast and it works flawlessly!

    Worked fine but if you need to be on the go this is not best option since connecting and disconnecting it creates issues with the drive.

    I really like this hard drive because it doesn't require a separate power source. I used it to back up my hard drive and still have plenty of room to spare. Will buy again.

    This 2TB drive is running great. Allowed me to copy all my data from my work computer to have access while at home. Saving to and from this drive is smooth and no issues.

    Works very well. I needed this when I had a problem with my computer. We used it for a backup so the problem could be worked around and the rest could be reinstalled.

    This has been a great product for what I needed. Basically to quickly store a bunch of files and also to quickly move data between two machines. It plugs and plays with ease between my PCs and laptops.

    For the price and size, its a great back up solution. Just plug the usb c port to your phone, grant it access and your off! And when im done, i can put it on my nas drive for backups. Comes with a usb 3 to usb c dongle. A definite buy

    Using two of these for backups. The most interesting being as the time machine backup for a MacBook Pro. Thus far has been very good. I'd give it five stars, but I haven't had opportunity to drive it through a larger recovery. I would recommend it for personal backups or extra storage on a machine with little built in.

    Great external HD! It's also the perfect size for the average square shaped sticker. Ridiculous as it seems, that was important to me...maybe it will be to you as well?
