Toshiba Canvio Connect II: Great performance, great software, great price – the Canvio Connect II is the whole package

Very nice ext hard drive. Have had no problems so far. Lots of storage (3 TB) for the money. Fast enough. I never use the software that comes with these things, but looks like it would be OK. So far, so good. Nice to have 3 TB available for backups when needed. More important these days, than ever.

This compact 2TB hard drive is quite portable. I fit it easily into a jacket pocket. it copies the files on my computer quickly and almost imperceptibly. I had an older portable hard drive that slowed down my computer whenever it was working. I haven't noticed this hard drive doing that.

I don't use this a lot, because I use it to backup my computer. I only bought this one, because my last Toshiba external hard drive is about 7 years old and would hate for it to kick the bucket (after my laptop did). This hard drive is about 3/4's the size of my old one but has twice the storage.

This is a fantastic external hard drive. I own an HP Envy x360-13 which has a fairly small internal SSD drive. It's big enough to hold all the applications I want to have installed, and the computer is fantastic, but I needed a way to carry a huge amount of data plus some other programs which are...

This detected and set up very quickly and easily on an Xbox One. Games don't seem to take any longer to load from the external drive. The HDD requires no external power. The cord is pretty short, but it's probably just right for the type of use the drive would see.

I am very satisfied with the product up to now. I used it as a backup drive. Never had the need to consult tech support

I just opened this, put some files on it, put it back in the box to keep it safe until I get a case, and today it is broken. I'm not sure if I just got a dud, but it was working yesterday and today you can hear the clicking inside. It won't pull up on a computer and the light won't flash.

Plug and play. This stand alone HDD is compact nice looking and pretty fast. I use it to back up my old school laptop via the included USB cable. My Windows machine runs USB 2.0, but this drive is compatible with 3.0 as well.

Plug it in and it works as it should.

I was still using Usb 2.0 at the time of purchase. The more capacity on Usb stick, the longer it takes to put information on. So I upgrade from using Usb to this 1 Tb hard drive that easily fit into my pockets.
