This hard drive with a large capacity fits in the hand and makes no noise .It is recognized by all my computers, my TV Sony Bravia, the free box ... Its small size makes it truly portable. Note that the connecting wire is a USB cable 3, it works fine with USB 2 aussi.Le wire is a little short but it is enough if you need more length, simply connect it with a USB extension cable and it works perfectly. For a reasonable price, this hard drive does perfectly what is expected of him. After several months of use, I take it everywhere, work, vacation, it works just as well, I have to buy a second!
