## Questions & Answers

**Q: Product describes 5tb drive with usb-c connector, but illustration shows thunderbolt version.**
A: Correct. Wrong pictures. 
I purchased this and it is in fact a 5TB USB-C drive. The USB-C lead is not attached like the older drives but is supplied.

**Q: Is the 4TB model 7200rpm?**
A: no it's 5400rpm. only the 500GB is 7200rpm. if you need a faster unit you could get the more expensive rugged RAID.

**Q: Is it compatible with OSX10.4?**
A: Hi, if you have USB interface, it is compatible

**Q: Will this work on iPhone 13 pro**
A: No idea, but I wouldn't bother with this product. Mine stopped working after a month, and then got lost when sended for repair. In the end it took 4 months to resolve the situation, and I never got my data back, just the price of the drive was reibursed. Never again.
