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.

It is five times slower (about 15 Mb/sec) than my other Seagate and other brands of 5tb portable drives (about 75Mb/sec).

I used this HDD with my Mac Book Pro 15- 2017 and and I’m not very happy with it. It’s not fast, and i had some problems to format.

I had a hard time trying to format it for my mac, but it works pretty well! I thought it was a plug and play one, but it didn’t seem to work that way.

Of all of the ones I’ve bought, they work well and only one went bad after a while. I just filled it this one up with quality audio, video, photos from an event and notes for the client. These things work well, and the prices have come way down (like a COVID panic stricken stock market). I put raw footage on them for clients since they are cheaper to buy that SD cards. they are light, small and mail cheaply. Plus everyone has a USB drive.

I’m insanely busy overseeing a million digital art projects ( working at the university) and this is just plug and play heaven….. easy, fast well, I wish it was faster , but ok does the job, reasonable price (never raise it !) B&H is reliable, fast order set up, delivery, one and done. AMAZING!

I had no great expectations given the capacity of this drive. I put this thing to the test and, at first, it was just so-so. I found that the factory had formatted this drive as NTFS (VFAT can’t run this large.) but they made the block size only 4k. When I reformatted it to 32k NTFS it came alive. The response times went down and it just worked better for the work I ask it to do. Your mileage may vary, it all depends on what you need. This guy powers from the USB connection, so make sure the device(s) you use can handle the extra draw…it uses way less juice than older USB hybrids I’ve owned.

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!

I wonder about these jam packed drives

This is a great small portable hard drive that has lots of space. It was easy to format and has good speeds.

It’s lightweight, compact, USB powered, and so far it’s working nicely. And B&H delivered it very, very fast.
