Maxone Portable External Hard Drive 500GB 2.5" HDD - USB 3.0 Ultra Slim Aluminum HDD Backup for PC/Desktop/Laptop/TV/Chromebook/Windows - Charcoal

Great device already used this morning and absolute brilliant . Very happy indeed.

I have bought two of these 250 and 500 I wish I had bought the 500 in the first instant I will be buying another 500 as I feel safe that I have made the right choice thank you

I thought it was slow. I did some tests with chrystalDisk and the results seemed the same as a slow SD card. Then I investigated further and found it depends on avoiding older spec USB sockets. On a good spec USB 3 it's quite good. Best way to test is with a 2GB file which should copy in about 20seconds. That is good enough for use as a backup device but it's important to appreciate how much slower this is than the SSDs especially the M. 2 type which maybe as much as 30 times faster. If you need really fast access use something else.

I’ve been using these hard drives for years. They are great to use with my MacBook and can handle premier pro. I recently purchased one which was a complete dud, did not work. It wouldn’t connect to my Mac at all. I have ordered another one (I’ve brought 8 or 9 in the past so I trust it was just a faulty one) and will return the malfunctioning one to the company. They’re great !

This hard drive works well and is a lot faster than my old one! It appears to be very well made, with a metallic painted metal case. I would prefer the activity light to a be a little bigger and brighter, and also the data cable to fit more flush with the drive but those are minor quibbles especially at the price!

works well and quickly

As far as I can tell from internet searches, this is a common problem. The return window has closed (after 8 months) but the hard drive has stopped connecting to my laptop. The problem is the port that the power/data lead plugs into. It's too flimsy and has stopped working. Advice to other customers would be - if you intend to leave it in place and you will not plug and unplug, you will probably be OK. If you want a Portable External Hard Drive do not choose this model. I've now got the pain of paying for an expert to try to retrieve my data. Since my previous hard drive had the same problem, I won't be buying Maxone again. It's more expensive than average and doesn't go the distance.

This external hard drive does exactly what it promises, and more importantly, it’s still going strong after a few months on the road. I’ve lost count of how many previous drives have given up after being bumped around in a backpack, but this one has handled travel like a champ. Fast, simple to use, and no fuss...just plug in and go. If you’re tired of replacing drives that can’t keep up with your lifestyle, this one’s worth every penny.

Slechte harde schijf. Na nog geen 2 maanden gebruiken de usb aansluiting stuk!

Failed after one month of use, I take care of the things I buy and very rarely does something like this happen to me but here we are.

Ürün gayet hızlı ve güzel sessiz kullanışlı

appena collegato al mio portatite e bastato collegare la presa usb ed e gia pronto, non ho dovuto formattare nulla etc...unica cosa è 232gb in effettivo non 250

Fonctionne parfaitement, rapide et silencieux. La capacité correspond bien à la description et l’installation est immédiate : branché et reconnu sans problème. Format compact, pratique à transporter. Très bon rapport qualité-prix, je recommande sans hésiter.
