    quick and easy

    The USB 3 transfer rate is good and stable. For the time being, it's working well. The only drawback is the switch at the back. It doesn't seem to stop the hard drive electrically. To be checked, but I have my doubts.

    4TB HDD Reviews

    Quick and easy ordering and delivery.
    I will use the DD to save my LR catalogue. There's plenty of room to fill it up. Takes up little space on the desk (looks like a book) It is quiet.
    Good product, good site!

    fast and safe, good performance

    very easy to install, but quite difficult to get up and running.
    Fortunately, with the help of a product technician, he guides you through how to configure it on your computer,
    Thank you and it was very easy, even for a beginner like me who doesn't know much about computers.
    Thanks again, Claude.

    perfect

    Nothing to complain about, very good storage/price ratio, various connectors and practical 'upright' position.
