Toshiba Canvio Flex 2TB Portable External Hard Drive USB-C USB 3.0, Silver for PC, Mac, & Tablet - HDTX120XSCAA

I use it for my mac and it works great!

I would give this Toshiba external hard drive a six, but you can only give it a five. The Toshiba external hard drive comes with two different plugs. It comes with a USB-C and a USB plug. This will hook up to older computers, and newer computers. I have a new Mac Book Pro, and had no problem hooking it up to Time Machine. It has a 1 Tb hard drive, which should last for a long time. I would differently recommend this hard drive to anyone who needs to back uo their computer

Reliable dependable and works to back up my Older IMac files. Plug and play with apple ios time machine. No stress easy to set up. A synch!!

Excelente lo recomiendo, en tiempo de entrega y capacidad de almacenamiento

I auto back up my computers every night. I am pleased with the physical size and 4 tb capacity of this portable hard drive. I had an initial problem that took awhile to resolve, but turned out to be an easy fix. The problem was that my computer would not boot when the new drive was plugged in. The easy fix is to reformat the drive from fat to ntsf. Now, no problem. It would be helpful if this issue was addressed with instructions in the box. Without instructions, it took me awhile to figure it out.

After having major issues with other drives, I bought two of the 4Tb version. I have now tested these two drives for several months in rough conditions and I have had no issues with slow down or errors. My issues with other drives had to do with moving thousands of files into the drive and then the drive not being able to cope with the large numbers of files. The drives would eventually slow down and shut down. I have not had these issues with the two Toshiba drives. They have more than 100,000 files each and do not fail

I have had it for seen months when it suddenly stopped working mid-update. I hear a sound like its trying but it never appears as being installed. Disappointed.

Love the flexibility this product offers, Im able to plug it into Phone, iPad, or PC and preserve the quality of the photos. Im at a point of confusion and a bit of frustration but Id still recommend this to others as its portable, convenient and serves its main purpose. Please approach the rest of commentary with the understanding that Im very new to photo storage and upgraded from Google photos to this toshiba hard drive to preserve my raw photos. I have minimal understanding of hard drive technology and specs. My challenge is.....data transfer takes a lot longer than I anticipated/hoped. Its excruciatingly slow trying to open, view, and organize photos on my iPad. So much so that on an 11 hour flight, I wasnt able to accomplish anything. Its faster with my laptop, which makes sense to this non tech expert. That being said, its still really pretty slow and laggy when reading it. Transfer of photos from SD card to hard drive took a pretty long time, I did it in 2 phases, maybe 30 gb each time. Would love to figure out the math on what I should expect that transfer to take, maybe my expectations were too high. I dont know anything about specs, I wish I had before I bought and wish I did now. I assumed that if it can STORE 2TB of data, that it should have no problem reading 74 gb worth of items at a fair speed so I can organize them into folders. As I simply view them on my laptop, It also doesnt seem to keep them loaded as I scroll down, and it is an arduous process to group them. Maybe Im meant to transfer the photos to the computer first and look at them there, and then transfer them back? Is that how to make this work better? Ill be doing some research in my spare time. Biggest complaint - if it is such a difficult task to open up and load all the photos at once in the main folder where they default, can there be an easier way to group them into separate folders to reduce this pain point? Maybe an auto folder based on date, or all photos from 5000-6000 in one. Maybe Ill look into a software that organizes them as this is painful. I dont know if it is possible to organize the photos ahead of time from the SD card before transferring when on the go - or if I should just rethink my process all together. Other context - Ive confirmed my laptop processing capabilities are not the issue, it is the specs of the hard drive (confirmed by tech support from laptop team). HP Elitebook, new in last 5 years.

This drive is great for those that tend to be on the go a lot. I used this drive to back up all of my files from my desktop to bring with me when Im out for use on my laptop. I also have used this drive to install and run games (to preserve storage space on my laptops internal SSD) and they run just as good as on any other drive. The USB C connectivity is also very convenient to access and transfer files to/from an Android phone or Tablet, which I really appreciate. On top of that, its small size makes it easily pocketable which only adds to why I enjoy this particular drive. Definitely recommend this drive to anyone seeking a drive with plenty of capacity and some of the best portability Ive seen in a drive!

Nice to have fast file transfer with 4 TB of storage.
