I bought this drive to use as a Time Machine backup device. It has USB-C plugs on both ends of the cord. I plugged it in and it mounted immediately on the desktop. I did have to reformat it to Time Machine specs. The one question I have that isn't answered since I just got it, is whether this has to be unmounted every single time I shut my computer down or put it to sleep. (I typically let it sleep since it has an SSD and doesn't generate heat like a normal hard drive would. Hence the reason for a Crucial SSD external drive.) Anyway, a pop-up message came up when I got back on the Mac and it said it was not ejected properly?? I didn't eject it. I simply put the Mac to sleep. Why does it have to be ejected? I don't eject my clients' thumb drives every time? So this could potentially be a bit of a PITA. At any rate, I'm currently letting Time Machine do its backup and 385GB of information appears to be taking roughly 20 minutes to copy. No noise or overheating noted. It's very very small and lightweight also. I do really like Crucial products, and also use their memory in my Mac with zero issues. For the price of less than $50, it's a solid deal.
