Type of review

Great product. I just plugged it into my PS4 and my system recognized it, asked if I wanted to use extended storage and it set it up. Transfer 450 GB of data in 40 minutes. There's no audio to worry about and my system is faster as far as menus go now that the external hard drive has freed up space for important programs from the original hard drive. Don't think you'll get faster load times, I really haven't noticed any difference. I had lag issues when trying to enter the shutdown menu or…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Security

Awesome External Hard Drive

I bought this external hard drive to use to store all my important documents and photos away from my computer. I had another one for a few years but it got to the point that the cable I use for it no longer stays connected so I had to get another one before I lost everything. This works great! I love the fact that it uses the USB cable both ways, so my cable started giving me problems, it would be easy to replace. I also like that it is very durable and waterproof as I like to carry it in my…

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Speed

Terrible. Use WD instead.

I bought it but it took 3 months to try it because I was preparing for a trip abroad. I know little. As soon as I started preparing for the journey, I found that it would get pulled every time I tried to add content to the drive. I started trying to use it as a Time Machine backup on my Mac. It kept getting kicked out whenever I tried and then my computer shut down. Yes, I formatted correctly. I kept trying to use it like a regular drag-and-drop hard drive. I would try to transfer a 3GB folder…

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • Unfashionable

Extremely disappointed

I am extremely disappointed in this product. After the initial purchase in 2015, I had no problems with the drive until recently. About a month ago I tried to recover some old data from this drive; Minutes after connecting the drive I was informed that all my data on the drive was corrupt - over 300GB of very important historical data. I was able to purchase recovery software which thankfully recovered >90% of all my lost data, but my external hard drive has since become unusable and…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Reliability

Updated Again: External Hard Drives

Love this little drive. I use it to transfer files with me and between computers around my house. Love the space to store the forks but it doesn't really stay in place. I use a rubber band around it to make sure it doesn't fall off in my bag. The device is very attractive and appears to be durable, time will tell. It's 3/4 inch thicker than my other external drives. Bought on August 10, 2917 Now July 21, 2018 Changed my stars from 5 to 1. In less than a year, it doesn't show up on my old Win 7…

Pros
  • Free for Educational Use
Cons
  • Contact Seller

Great hard drive Tough inside and out

I rarely write reviews but I had to because I came to buy another one (after 6 years of GREAT use) and I see people slandering this AMAZING hard drive. Content Creator (Vlogger) on Facebook and YouTube and with it make many videos, store and access many files. I travel a lot. International and I live in an RV full time. This hard drive has traveled Africa, South America, Central America, the Caribbean and Mexico. It was in my backpack, at the international checkout, in my purse, on my laptop…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
