Compact and lightweight, plenty of space for my files, and transfers are solid with USB-3 speeds on my laptop.” � Amazon “Perfect backup solution. I use this to free up space on my PC — fast drag-and-drop file transfers and it’s reliable so far.” � Amazon “Reliable storage! Stores everything I need without errors and is easy to carry around — great external drive for everyday use.” � Amazon “Compact but big capacity. Fits in my bag, works on both my desktop/Mac (after reformatting), and gives me lots of room for large files.” � Amazon 💡 Tip: This kind of HDD is great for backups and large file storage, but it’s not an SSD — so speeds won’t match SSD performance for running apps or games directly off the drive. � Amazon Want 5-star review templates in Spanish or tailored to a specific use (e.g., PS4/PS5 storage, Mac compatibility, or work files backup)?

great External Drive to have makes storing easy

I do a lot of gaming and one of the big problems I have with my xbox series s is storage. The game console comes with 300 gb of storage for gaming which is terribly very small. An easy work around to this is to redownload games and back up data to the cloud but the problem with that is it requires internet to be able to do that and to back up games to the cloud takes forever compared to backing them up on a drive. Backing them up on a drive has 1 gb/s where transfer speeds of my wifi router to the xbox are about 0.2 gb/s making storing them on a drive 5 times faster in terms of transfer speeds and such. This is not my first toshiba drive. I bought a 1 tb drive last year but I chose to get rid of it because 1 tb is just not enough storage for game transfer. I have already used up 2.7 tb of the 4 tb drive I bought from this seller. Pros: 1. Dirt cheap drive. 2. Stores what you want. 3. Transfer speeds greatly out perform my wifi router making it more ideal for gaming in my opinion because the xbox series s is hugely impacted by the number of different games you can play. Cons: 1. Unlike the 1 tb version I can feel the 4 tb version vibrating while in use suggesting that there is a spinning disk inside. As other people reviewing this have pointed out it is more prone to failing than a ssd drive. Just something to keep in mind. I haven't had this drive fail on me yet. Conclusion: I have repeatedly transferred back and forth repeatedly numerous terrabytes worth of data and it has not failed on me yet. Just remember to keep backups of backups always. Good day!

Wonderful product, works seamlessly with my PC as a second hard drive, I just turned off my computer, plugged it in, turned the computer back on and did a few things and logged back in, back at my station in less than five minutes and presto, I had a two-terabyte hard drive installed on my computer. The drive is the size of a pack of playing cards, and I keep all my data files on it, if my computer ever crashes due to old age, my data is still safe. Just $125.00 and I don't have to worry ever again about a data loss that way. Silent, easy to install, lightweight, just a USB port to add to your PC. My last one is two years old, getting hard use and still going strong. Very durable.

Made it 3 years before the click of death started. Never moved it around. Used it to file off photos and kept it stored in the home office. In these last days, working to copy the files off, it works best when plugged directly into the USB port of a plugged in laptop.

The Toshiba Canvio Basics 2TB HDD is a fantastic external drive! It’s compact, lightweight, and plugs in effortlessly via USB 3.0 for fast transfers. Perfect for backing up photos, videos, and work files.

I purchased this to save my recorded programs/movies from my Dishnet Hopper 3. Worked great. I wasn't clear if it came with a usb or not, so I purchased one... DON'T.... It comes with one that works perfectly. I keep it hooked up to the hopper, so the nice short cord is useful... (about 1 ft). If you need a longer one, then perhaps you'll want to purchase one - but not necessary otherwise. It was super easy - plugged it in, a box came up on my TV that asked if I wanted to update and format - I clicked yes and that was it. It was ready for transfer of saved material. The drive itself is approx 5:x4"x 3/4". It is black and has a little flashing light when it's being used. I had things sorted on my Hopper in "files". So far, I cannot figure out how to make folders on the hard drive, so everything is just mixed on the hard drive - that means looking thru about 200 titles - Eh - but the point of the hard drive for us is to save the content if we have to replace the Hopper at some point. It is easy to move the files back and forth.. And you can play the movies from the hard drive. It did take quite a while to transfer, we had about 50% of our Hopper memory - a number of hours. But no biggee to me. So far, I am happy with my purchase, however, time will tell. Having said that, I never hesitate to update my reviews should new info seem useful.

Excellent
