Garbage
Sorry to give a negative review - I prefer to give good reviews, which I do almost always, but this piece of junk, within 4 months, stopped working. I tried numerous fixes posted by exceptional companies like Easeus; unsuccessful.
This Toshiba Canvio Advance 2TB is worthless and a waste of my money. Calling this "Amazon's Choice" is a sick joke. Almost 5 stars? It deserves less than a one star; it deserves minus stars.
BTW, I use numerous external hard drives for storage. I use a different, older Toshiba and it's okay. I use WD, I use Seagate, I use Fantom; never a problem. Seagate and Fantom are very good. WD external hard drives are especially excellent. Reliable.
I purchased this Toshiba Canvio Advance 2TB in SEP 2018 and by the time the drive failed, the company had closed me off from support, etc.
I'm replacing this with a WD that I can trust.
