Toshiba Canvio Partner 1TB Portable 2.5’’ External Hard Drive, USB 3.2, Mac & Windows compatible. (HDTB510EK3AB)

I've bought this Toshiba Canvio Partner 1TB Portable 2.5’’ External Hard Drive as of its compact design and reliability. Fantastic to store all your photos and videos safely as well as portable. It's plug and play, this i believe is a highly recommended hard drive. Thanks.

Brilliant! This has completely opened up so many more games that we can access on the ps5. Very easy to connect, use and transfer data, took a little while initially but now easy to do and keep on top of it.Small in size and easily sits beside or behind the console.These things are expensive but this was a good price compared to other similar items and a huge amount of storage.

I was pleased with the drive. It's small, light and very easy to set up. Basically plug and play. I formatted the drive according to my OS and I was away. Transfer speeds are reasonable, but not mega fast. The drive connects via a usb A cable at one end and a proprietary connection at the other. This was disappointing, but I can appreciate that this might be to avoid a separate power cable. A usb c cable would have been nice though. Overall, I'm happy with the device.

Excellent external hard and worked straight out of the box. No problems with it at all

Excellent value for money! Very compatible, it works on both Mac and PC. It comes with the cable as well (USB A 3.0). Minimal noise level, I can barely tell when it’s on. This is a great budget option for file storage and transfer, I am using this to send files to a client on a physical copy.

Brilliant external hard drive. Plug and play and instantly recognised with Windows 10. Very fast and quiet transfers. No bigger than my palm so very light and portable. Comes with a 2 year guarantee and seems well made. I'm very happy with it and would recommend.

Great Value, and good product

I had an external hard disk as backup for for important files I have on my old computers, and the phones as well. If the computer fails, or much worst, the hard drives or the phones, then the data cannot be accessed anymore. Well, there are recovery companies who could, but they are a bit too expensive, so about 400 quit to recon with.I put my important files on different disks, some is on USB sticks, others on an external SSE drive. Note that both of these are not built to last. SSE drives have a natural limit how often they can be written on before they fail. Just keep that in mind and keep your important stuff safe elsewhere.In the older days I used CDs or DVDs, because they last 20 years if you don't damage them, but with todays huge data amounts they are just too small, and they are out hence.So the home user has basically no more ways to keep the data safe, sort of. Anyone with a desktop PC can at least install a second hard drive and copy anything important on that, and after a time of a few years put a third drive in and copy all over again, so that system has less risk to completely loose all data. You could also use a raid system, but that ain't so easy and how long term redundant that really is I cant say. It has its own troubles. When its disks get old, they will fail too. So better buy a new disk in regular intervals for long term safety.Laptop and phone user have no other chance than a cheap desktop with new HD drive to transfer the files to, or external Hard Drives.My external drive messed up while copying from the SSE drive. It was not used more than 50 times and not old either. No way to get it back running, not even special recovery software could access it. Windows explorer just hangs up while the drive is running up, pull it out and windows goes on...I lost not much, because all my computers still run with many files on them, and from scanned documents I still have the paper originals. But don't ask how fast I can find them in the attic ...But lots of images and videos went lost, they were only on that drive due to size, my old computers have not so much free space. I will see what I lost only when I need it, too much to remember what I all had.Now with my old PCs data and the SSE drive and sticks still again at risk, no second copies, I had no other choice than again an external hard drive.I got this Toshiba, 1 TB.First to say, read the reviews, for sure the lower stars. To say it simple, these drives are small and get hot when running long, so big file users may want to think about something else, something more reliable, professional external storage drives, not cheap and tiny.Since I know that I copy my files now in small portions, which can still take 5 minutes per action, on my old PCs.The drive works, not much to say about, plug and runs (on Win 7 32 bit and Win 10 64 bit. Not tested on a Linux system, because Linux is not mentioned anywhere, inform yourself if that is your plan).It has a high speed for modern file transfer, so if I get better PCs it goes much faster (and less runtime or heat).I learned my lesson and in a few years I waste money on another external drive.And please, nobody tell me about clouds. Can't see why I shall give others my data or believe they take care for it for the next 20 years.If I could send my drive to China so they recover the files (which are for sure there) and send it back on another cheap drive, and that all for 50 quit in 3-4 weeks ... well ...Although it does its job, for the unknown reliability I leave a star off.
