Also, if one fails (which it will eventually) I will not lose much because of the backups stored on the other drive. My last G-tech drive failed after five years and I lost all of the backed up data.
This newest G-drive is being used as my local backup drive for a Surface laptop. I have an older G-Tech external drive I've been using (for many years) as my Time Machine backup for my Mac. I also have a third G-Tech portable external drive (mounted in a shock resistant, water proof casing) I use for local backup of my photo library.
I have read of G-Tech reliability; they trend as the preferred choice of professionals (videographers and photographers in particular). The reputation of G-Tech drives seems to be quite good and my experience thus far has done nothing to make me think otherwise. G-Tech drives tend to cost a little more but, IMHO, their consistent reliability makes it worth it.
And that's why I bought this one; it's a G-Tech.
It connected easily to my new Mini, and the computer saw it right away. I was able to partition it with no problem and it has proven, so far at least, to be quite a workhorse and incredibly fast. I am always amazed at the speed of the evolution of technology, and this is definitely no exception. Recommended.

I could very easily reformat the drive to the newest APFS Apple format, which I wanted to do just from the beginning. I backed up the software for Windows it came with as a precaution, and deleted the small partition that came in. Capacity is reported correctly at 4 TB at all times.
