Good purchase
I bought this device a few weeks ago to organise all my documents in one place. I find the device very portable, durable, fast, and with a very large capacity. The device looks safe and cannot be easily damaged.

Excellent hard drive
Very easy to use, small in size but with more than enough space to back-up all my photos and documents. Definitely recommended (especially as I bought it during the RED20 promotion).
Bev, 65 or over
Very good value portable hard drive
Handy portable hard drive at a very reasonable price. Very easy to use with no set-up required - I just plugged it into my laptop and it was ready. The only issue I had was it only comes with a USB type A connector and I needed a USB type C. It was easy to buy a new lead separately though.
Deek, 55 - 64
Compact
I purchased this to store photos on so I dont ever lose them from pc or mobi, good quality and easy to set up
Picy
Low price for decent capacity HD
Lowest price for a 1tb hard drive that I could find. Needed to reformat to use with a Mac (Time Machine) but that was pretty straightforward.
