    I have purchased all of my hard drives from Amazon, but I had not purchased a new one for at least a couple of years. When I did my new Mac Mini set up, I decided to purchase a 2 TB hard drive to add to it. When it arrived, I thought something was wrong. Surely they had given me the wrong size! The photo shows the new drive next to the 256 GB LaCie Rugged that I purchased about five or six years ago – which still works on my old computer by the way – and I was blown away by the difference in size.It connected easily to my new Mini, and the computer saw it right away. I was able to partition it with no problem and it has proven, so far at least, to be quite a workhorse and incredibly fast. I am always amazed at the speed of the evolution of technology, and this is definitely no exception. Recommended.

    The product itself works very well. In this case the manufacturer/distributor assumes that users know how to make the drive work on an iOS device. There are no instructions included that I could find. It would be great if a YouTube link was provided for iPAD applications, as it would have saved me a bit of time to find a video that explained the correct operation.

    5.0 out of 5 stars It's a G-Tech drive ...
    Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2021
    Color: SilverCapacity: 1TBVerified Purchase
    ..it's why I bought it.

    This newest G-drive is being used as my local backup drive for a Surface laptop. I have an older G-Tech external drive I've been using (for many years) as my Time Machine backup for my Mac. I also have a third G-Tech portable external drive (mounted in a shock resistant, water proof casing) I use for local backup of my photo library.

    I have read of G-Tech reliability; they trend as the preferred choice of professionals (videographers and photographers in particular). The reputation of G-Tech drives seems to be quite good and my experience thus far has done nothing to make me think otherwise. G-Tech drives tend to cost a little more but, IMHO, their consistent reliability makes it worth it.

    And that's why I bought this one; it's a G-Tech.

    I use a Mac and the installation is just plug-n-play. Large file transfers are fast and easy, and I mostly love this drive because of its portability; it needs no separate power supply. I still have a G-Tech 6T drive that requires a power supply on my desktop and after a year of heavy daily use it is still working like a champ. This is a great value for the price.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing HD

    I bought this HD to go along with my mac mini. I love that its USB C so I know that I would get faster read and write speeds. I plugged it in and it worked awesome and Time Machine was a breeze. I dont even hear them. The only way I know they are working is because of the LED light. I also love the design and color. I feel they wanted to match Apple colors which was another reason I got these. Actually I got 2 of them. And they both work flawless. I have them hidden and double sided taped on my wall. They are always in use. I use one for my backups and one for my Photo Editing. Great product. Im thinking of buying another soon for my MacBook air. I highly recommend to anyone.

    I've used these drives without issue until now. This one came with worse cords but otherwise seemed identical, except it's louder and sometimes squeals when plugged in.

    thanks to the helpful folks that buy Amazon products, I bought this knowing its not an SSD.
    but the read and write speeds are acceptable, I was able to back up my laptop quite easily.
    its the most compact HDD I have ever bought, and seen. its almost as small as my SSD I bought like a year ago. its amazing

    1.0 out of 5 stars drive failed, as did warrantee process

    Worked like a charm... for a few days. Then it made chirping noises and stopped working altogether. The 3 year warrantee is a sham, the return process is clearly designed to make it impossible to return the drive.

    Sono un fotografo professionista @gaetanomansiphoto lavoro ed archivio con gli hd portatili e i gtech sono gli unici che non mi hanno dato mai un problema. Questa generazione è particolarmente affidabile, ne ho più di venti e continuo a comprarne.
