  • Key Specs
    • Storage Capacity: 2000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
    • Storage Drive Type: HDD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
    • Rotational Speed: 5400 revolutions per minute (The rate at which the hard drive spins its platters. The higher the rotational speed, the faster the drive can read and write data.)
    • Interface(s): USB 3.0 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Q: CAN AUTOMATIC BACKUPS BE SCHEDULED

A: Thanks for your question, LKG. Yes, the included NTI Backup Now EZ software scans your system and offers customizable backup options for your computer. Choose between backing up your files and folders to the cloud, backing up your files and folders to your Canvio® Connect portable hard drive, backing up everything saved on your computer, or choose all three for the most comprehensive coverage. Click the restore button and you can recover a file, folder, or your entire system. You can even schedule your backup to run automatically at any time and day.

Q: Is this compatible with Wii U for game storage?

A: Thanks for your question. To ensure maximum performance between your Wii U and an external storage device, Nintendo recommends using a hard-disc drive (HDD) with a dedicated power source (i.e., using an A/C adapter). The Toshiba Canvio Desk hard drives such as this model would be a good option: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/toshiba-canvio-3tb-external-usb-3-0-hard-drive-black/6914041.p?id=1218813788932&skuId=6914041
