Don't make it good for computers and accessories

This drive lasted less than a month. Used it to store historical files and digital images NOW I HAVE LOST EVERYTHING. The hard drive just stops working and no computer recognizes it.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Capacity

Plug and play! for external hard drives

I use this hard drive to backup my CCTV cameras. I just bought a WesternDigital 2TB, had to send it back. I had to get my computer to recognize it and then it said it wasn't ready. He told me to reformat! You don't have to go through all this! I know Verbatim has a great name. It may have been a bit more expensive, but once I took it out of the box, I plugged it in and it really worked! So happy!

Pros
  • satisfied so far
Cons
  • embarrassed

Verbatim is one of the most amazing, best quality

Verbatim is one of the most amazing, best made and most durable external/portable USB drives I've ever used! I have used many other brands and this is one of the ONLY brands that has held up over time!

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • So So

I would recommend this drive as a standard hard drive.

Just like an unencrypted hard drive, it works GREAT! It was a great product, but it doesn't seem to work well with the software encryption I'm using. The hard drive keeps deteriorating. For some reason the encryption doesn't seem to be to blame as it works fine on other devices I have and haven't had any issues. Note that I don't know what situation will cause the encryption system to fail. But I believe that it is due to an incompatibility of the combination of hardware and software.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • I really don't like it, everything is fine

Cons
  • Out of style

Supported backup service

I use Microsoft Windows 7 backup service for both my desktop and laptop. I then copy files to this portable device in minutes, not hours. I need to keep this drive physically close to me in case one of my workstations goes down.

Pros
  • regular price
Cons
  • unreliable
