    Nice form factor, easy interface, I can still choose to backup what I want or use auto backup. USB 3 keeps it speedy!

    I use this as external back up for my computer files. You can set up the automatic back-up frequency and files/drives that you want. I haven't had any issues to date. Serves its purpose.

    Had to reformat for Mac, but once having done that, works well. Note that the cable is USB 3 on the end that connects to the computer but a micro USB 3 connector to the drive

    It's got a nice case, very SHINY. Other than that it's a USB hard drive, not much to say about it. Formatted it for Mac, so can't comment on the bundled Windows software...

    The hard drive it's very good build and has a sturdy case but it's slower than other external USB 3 Hard drives. If you're not concerned about speed, it's really good.
