Review: Works as intended (I think) - I make 2 backups of my PC every week -- one goes on this drive. I carry it with me. The other goes on another drive and I keep it in a safe. I'm limited in what I can say about the drive because I've never had to use it to recover.
Review: I like usb-C to usb-C cable with usb-A adapten - Very slick design and I like usb-C to usb-C cable with usb-A adapten which Seagate didn’t provide and complicated micro-B complicated cable design for same 1TB HDD And Customer Support is better with WD. I have returned both 1TB seagate hdds drives and replaced them w WD ones And more satisfied now. That’s my experience anyway …. Thx
