A full terabyte gives you space for large photo libraries, music collections, documents and project archives. Moving older files off your computer's internal drive helps keep it tidy, while a separate copy of your important folders on an external drive gives you a simple backup you control yourself.
The drive uses a USB Type-C connector and the USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also known as 3.1 Gen 1) standard, so it plugs straight into the reversible port found on many current laptops. USB 3.2 Gen 1 is designed for noticeably quicker transfers than older USB 2.0, which makes copying big folders less of a wait.
Built around a 2.5" hard drive and weighing just 130 g, it slips easily into a laptop bag or backpack pocket. The understated black finish suits any desk setup, and you can carry your files between home, office and lectures without noticing the extra load.
This drive suits students storing coursework, home users backing up family photos, and remote workers who need extra space on a laptop with a USB-C port. It's also a handy option for anyone who wants an affordable, portable place to archive files they rarely use but don't want to delete.
