I bought this Toshiba Hard Drive as I was not aware you could not, or at least I was not aware I could not, save a system image to a flash drive which I originally purchased (SanDisk). The drive I wanted to save my system image to needed to be formatted NTSF. I actually changed the flash drive to that and it still didn't work. Since I'm getting warnings that my laptop hard drive may not last much longer, I needed to make sure I have things saved. I'll keep the flash drive as I'm sure it will come in handy. But I bought this Toshiba HD to save my system image. A warning or note about this Toshiba hard drive. I have a USB multi port device plugged into one USB port on my laptop. This external Toshiba HD does not like being plugged into that multi port device. It kept turning on and pausing making a clicking noise. I had to unplug the multi port device from the laptop. I then plugged plugged the HD in directly to the PC USB port. Once I did that, all worked as it should. I've saved my system image without any issue. I also have an external DVD RW drive. I wound up needing that to create a repair disc as you can't save a repair disc to a hard drive. It was requiring a disc.

Got this for my brother, who's had horrible luck with hard drives recently. This one has worked exactly as expected for years. He really likes the color, the size is nice, everything about it is great. I'd buy this again in a heartbeat.

Very easy to use and works perfectly.Fast transfer speed and compact design.Great for storing files and backups.Very happy with this purchase

This is an updated review since i had issues with my intial purchase, half of which wasnt an issue with this device. Read below for old review. I have gotten a replacement because my original was doa. So far this one seems good. Its functioning as expected. As a side note: this was my first time contacting amazon customer support. The person helping me did a great job. It was quick and not at all painful as i thought it would be! I was impressed. Old review:First and foremost the harddrive failed almost immediately. Now I understand that there are going to be issues now and again, so i just set it up to do a swap for the exact same drive. When my new drive arrived it wasnt quite the same. It was a Weezer cd. Now, i believe that to be a warehouse issue probably. However, now when i try to set it up to send it back for what i was supposed to get, it wont allow me. How frustrating.

Very good hard drive. But as with all hared drives they are priced way to high.

The Toshiba Canvio USB 3.0 portable hard drive delivers everything you need in a compact and dependable storage solution. Plug-and-play with USB 3.0 (also fully compatible with USB 2.0), it offers data transfer speeds up to about 5 Gb/s (~100 MB/s in real-world usage). Despite its small size—typically around 78 × 109 × 14 mm and weighing under 150 g for 1 TB/2 TB variants—it feels solid and durable, perfect for travel or everyday backup . The built‑in shock sensor and ramp-loading technology add an extra layer of data protection. I used mine to back up photos, videos, and large files—and it performed flawlessly. No external power needed, no setup required—just plug in and drag-and-drop. It’s also affordable and comes with a standard one-year warranty (some models include 3-year). Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, everyday external storage.

It is a value for money buy. None at 4TB at such price of S$110

Me gusto su tamaño, peso y calidad de materiales. La transferencia es rápida. Me agrado bastante el software de contraseña (modo seguro o algo así). El de 1 TB me servirá bastante para liberar espacio en mi laptop.

Leve, pequeno e bonito. Ótimo HD externo.
