Needed an external drive for backup purposes.
Searched, read reviews, selected this one.
I ordered, it came in a timely fashion and in good condition.
Worked as advertised.
Plug and Play.
No techie skills required.
I did need to make some changes to be able to backup entire system, but instructions were available and easily followed.

Not so sure I bought this item
»
I bought one of these babies a month and a half ago and am not all that pleased. I have several machines that I routinely move information from/to and back up. I needed a reliable and portable solution. I've had several problems with some of my machines ingesting this drive and so am concerned about long-term reliability. If you're considering a disk like this, review all alternatives first!
