  • Small, yet powerful and fast! Works off of USP power, no AC power required. Gonna' order another as a spare.
Capacity: 500GB Style: Portable
Plugged in the USB cord and transferred my music ( ProTools sessions). Man, it is fast. Used it to see if it would keep up with playing one of my songs with 50+ music tracks. It does,, and the song loads up faster than my other older drives. I can't believe how small it is, it fits in my pocket easier than my phone. You don't have to plug in a power cord, this is almost as convenient as a flash drive. ... show more

  • It's barely adequate
Capacity: 500GB Style: Portable
The 500G works but you can't tell if it is on or not. A carefully slim buried blue LED light is not readily discernable; it is small, narrow, and buried in a sunken line. If you don't know this you may end up starting with the drive upside down and no LED at all to show activity or on or off.

  • I am very pleased with both products
Capacity: 500GB Style: Portable
I purchased this to give more storage to my channel Master dvr. I do not have Internet where I live and decided to cut the cord with satellite television. I just have plain antenna t.v. but thanks to this combo, I can record shows etc . I am very pleased with both products.

  • Perfect for what I needed to back up my computer
Perfect for what I needed to back up my computer. I'm not really tech savvy, computer wise, but needed to save documents and photos. Now I do not need to worry about losing them if something happens to my computer.
