Working great

So far it is working great. I now have 3 of them since I run 4 computers. I have one on 3 of them. Even I figured out how to use it. Which is saying something good. :)

Good hard drive. Works well

I only use this to manually back up files. I don't use the encryption or automatic service, but it does what I want quickly. I only have USB 2.0, but I am looking forward to try the USB 3 speed soon.

As External Storage Driv for Dish Network ViP612

I unpacked the unit and connected it to the Dish Receiver which ''saw'' it within 10 seconds and asked me if I wanted to format the unit. I clicked YES and withing 10-12 minutes the Dish Receiver rebooted and the unit was ready to use. This was truly plug n play.

Works very nicely

Using it to back up all computers in the house manually. Can't speak to the software; I wasn't interested in trying it. I note the data transfer rate varies based on what kind of files I'm copying at the time (large files vs. small, videos vs. Word documents etc.), so I assume it's going as fast as it can for whatever those types are. Very satisfied thus far.
