Great for backup in the field.

these are cheap drives so you should test them immediately after you buy them. I left mine on the shelf till i needed it and then it was too late to return it when I realized it was defective.

I just needed an external drive to back computers up for storage in a fireproof safe. The 2TB and small form factor is great. I was able to plug the drive into my Windows 10 laptop and start the backup within minutes after receiving the package. The entire drive is about the length and width of my hand and as thick as my pinky finger. It won’t take up much room in the safe!

Wasn’t DOA so that’s good. Benchmarks right around 130 MB/s, seems pretty solid.

I placed this drive on top of a stack of books about 9 inches high. I connected the cord it came with and went to plug it to my Surface Pro. Apparently, the Surface was a little too far for the cord and I ended up pulling the cord enough for the drive to come with it. What followed was a pretty hard thud, enough for me to be concerned about the drive. I cleared my desk and plugged in the drive only to find 300GB of files wiped out. Luckily, I’m using this drive as a backup, so nothing was actually lost. As I tried to eject it, a notification popped up preventing me from ejecting. This was new to me, as I am able to eject without any issues. I unplugged the drive anyway and upon re-plugging, a notification popped up saying the entire drive is corrupted and needs to be repaired, which I am in the process of doing. Great. For $100, I’d expect the quality of this hard drive to be a little better. If you are looking to buy a hard drive, please be take extra care into it when to open it out of the box.

Great price, fast device on USB3. I put this on my Linksys WRT1900AC router as a shared local drive for storing videos and backing up my PC. Works well.

Excelente!!

It works well and with greater bandwidth compared to legacy drives. My only hope is it will be extended to even greater capacity!

I purchased the unit to back up files from a soon to be decommissioned 2012 MacAir computer. The transfer went smoothly and as far as I can tell perfectly. Intended use is as a static back up, that is, it is for security of existing material rather than ongoing addition of new files. For the price, it seems just right for what I need.

great

Plenty of room to backup your old PC when you move to Windows 10 on that new PC. And it’s so small you can put all your photos and files in your pocket.

Good product for a cheap prize. Prize has been increased by $5 after I made purchase (for $44).

Great value for 2 TB external drive. Comes formatted for Windows, but start up program makes it simple to follow the instructions to format it for Mac.

Just needed an extra drive to drop some extra files on. Works perfectly for that. You get what you pay for as the housing feels really cheap.

Simply plug in the USB port of a computer and the computer system will recognize it automatically. It is very user friendly.
