    Advertised for compatibility with all latest Mac models but I had to disconnect it already twice because it interferes with the normal functions of Safari and Mail. For instance today I had to use disk utility first aid to be able to return it to normal functionality. If it happens again it will have to go. My system is Sequoia 15.5 which is the latest upgrade.

    Bought this to replace my old Apple time machine that started giving me some trouble. Got it home ad was a little Leary about hooking it up because sometimes things like this has a mine of its own by giving you troubles hooking it, not this I plugged it in and off it went no setting up at all

    Great option as a Apple Time Machine backup drive. I had to reformat the drive to match APFS file system; however, the drive has been in continuous use for a few months now and has performed as expected. The drive has a USB-C connection which was needed for my Apple MacBook Pro.
