I actually bought this external hard drive for my MacBook Pro because I have too much memory that I need to swap out to make room for more data. The disk showed up on the desktop, but I couldn't read or write to it, and yes, I was using an administrator account. I'm not sure why I couldn't get it to work a few times when I tried. I'll keep playing around with it. If I manage to get it working with my MacBook Pro I'll update it here. However, it worked fine with my husband's work PC, allowing him to upload to it with no problem. It also needs more storage space for us to use it. I have yet to solve my problems on my laptop or look for another portable hard drive for it. In general, that's good, it's just that with modern technology, who knows exactly what the problem is. I will continue to research this. There was actually almost 120GB of storage space available, so that's good. If you own a computer, at least you know it's a well-functioning, thin, fast portable hard drive with the right amount of extra storage.
