good for people who don't need much memory
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am glad to have the Passport but still unsure whether i am using it correctly. I do not know if it deletes a file, when transferring additions which have been made on PC. But I am a senior citizen and i think younger generations would love it.

Verey Easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my third portal drive. I have one big drive for all of my data. One that is smaller than that to backup my PCs. This one is smaller I use it to copy my music, videos and pictures and I can take it with me to connect to any PC.

Decent speeds, no power needed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to connect to a Micca speck media reader. I had been using USB sticks to store media files. This is much faster than USB drives and even better, is powered directly by USB port, so no external power brick needed. Have had it about 6 weeks and am satisfied with it.

It was doing about 80 mbs per second. which is good because i have a entry level computer. the hard drive it self can do about 110 mbs per second.

I Hate the keyboard
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.On the whole I feel like I paid too much for this laptop. I had it for a short time, a little over a month and the pin on the connection cord got bent through normal everyday use and no one seemd to know what size it would take as it is not the standard size. It turns out it's compatable with a notebook cord. Nuts! Cost 70.00 to replace and now I feel like have to be extremely careful about it. Also unless you pound on the keyboard the letters often don't type, so if you hunt and peck like I do, I think I've typed a paragraph and look up to find a lot of the letters missing! Very annoying! I had to go back and fill in a lot of letters in this review!

Great deal on a great product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical about whether or not this size would be ideal for the amount of data I planned on using it for, but it is plenty. I've transferred nearly all of the data at ease.

Not using this product for data transfer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am returning this product (External drive), because I found a better, more effective way to move my items from my old computer to my new one. It will be better to move my items via cable, rather that one item at a time.

Worked great straight out of the box!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my Western Digital TV media player. Needed a USB 2 cable for the media player as it did not support the USB 3 cable it came with. Other than this it did the job!
