💽 BIPRA 160GB External USB 2.0 Hard Drive with One-Touch Backup Software - Silver (FAT32 Compatible) Review

This drive performs well but is very weak compared to other small portable drives I use. However, it easily reformats and works as advertised. That's a good value, but I wouldn't use it for long-term storage of valuable files. Time will show resilience.

I just needed an easy to use and affordable high quality backup for my laptop and it does the job perfectly. Plug it in, drag your files onto it, and you're done. I only bought this as a temporary fix, but it works so well I think I'll be using it for years to come! The included case isn't impressive in terms of quality, but for the price, I'm willing to buy something better to carry around with me.

I think it's a very good product even though it doesn't come with an instruction manual. The back of the box doesn't count, and no one needs to be called for help setting it up. Bad show!

I used this to secure my MacBook Air. Delivered quickly, with all the necessary connections. After a quick reformat, I was able to back it all up (using Time Machine) within hours of the device arriving. One star off because the lid is cheap flimsy plastic, but for the price it's a good buy.

Purchased in April 2020, stopped working in August 2021. I contacted Bipra and never got a reply from them. Luckily, I only used it to back up my Mac, so nothing important was lost. No more Bipra products for me. Sure it could be a lemon, but why take the risk?

Received this unit today. It's plug and play. The computer recognized it immediately. However, I converted the drive as it is formatted as FAT. Some system-level Windows programs require NTFS. The drive has been reformed and I'm going to the races. Good ride for the price. Let's see how long this lasts.

I use mine to store all my school and family videos/photos. It contains everything and nothing I see in it has disappeared or failed. Ideal if you need to back up your data regularly in case something happens to your laptop or desktop computer.
