We bought two of these little 1TB drives over two years ago, and have used them hard. One we use for movies when we go camping, and the other is used for backing up our photos when we travel. They are compact, lightweight and fast (for a mechanical hard drive). We have never had a problem with either of them. Note, we did recently buy a new Samsung 500GB external SSD drive as a second backup for our photos, and it is so much smaller, lighter and light-years faster, but it was also about four times as much! So for cheap, reliable external storage, I would still recommend these Toshiba drives.

Purchased this external USB drive for extra storage. It has a nice small size and is a USB 3.0 drive but numerous drive are about its size and can store files. What really pleased me was the included software. It included backup software but what was really a nice surprise was the lifetime PogoPlug license and software. It allows you to use directories like cloud storage but where your PC is the cloud server. No limit to the amount of files that can be made available remotely. Your computer has to be on, of course, to access the files since it is acting as the server.
