We were a bit weary at first because of the price, but it turned out to be totally worth it and will save us lots of time and money on computer storage in the long run. The storage allows us to back things up on the HD instead of the computer’s HD, which has sped up the computer’s performance and made it easier to use. We also like having our files backed up in multiple places in case an SD card was to corrupt, we would not lose any pictures! This does the trick perfectly and also comes with the chord to connect it to your device.
It’s super easy to use right away and is very durable and sleek. The color is nice and the casing is very protective, so you don’t have to worry about anything happening to it or your files stored on it.
We are very happy we invested in this product and will be buying again when this one is full!

The rubber cushion exterior case is great for protecting the drive on the go, but know that dropping a platter-based hard drive like this one, even a small distance, while it is powered up and spinning, will probably destroy it. Once powered down, then it's more protected from damage by drops than most other portable USB drives out there.
As with other reviews, my only complaint is that no USB type A adapter is included for the USB-C cable, though most of our more recently purchased computers include at least one USB-C port. Due to this one downside, I'd rate this drive a 9 out of 10
