Title: Good value
Review: This Toshiba Canvio Flex 4 drive is only slightly thicker than my WD 2 TB drive but double its capacity. I love the fact that it comes with both USB-C and USB-A cables so that I do not need to constantly look for the dongle because my MacBook only has 4 USB-C like thunderbolt ports.In terms of speed, the MacOS hardware report states that this disk speed is up to 5 GB/s. I do not expect it to match SSD drives for sure. In reality, it took 5 hours to copy 52 GB data off my old WD drive. The speed could be limited by the read as well as the write process. It took nearly 7 hours to complete the first Time Machine backup of ~230 GB data off my internal hard drive. Since I'm using it for daily backups, all I need is that the drive is reliable and operates smoothly. Reformatting it to AFS, the format compatible with Time Machine, was a breeze. Judging by its quietness and coolness, I think that it will do just fine.At ~ $25/TB, I'm quite happy with this external hard drive.

Title: Perfect for Time Machine
Review: I’ve had this for two years now, using it to back up my Mac Mini. Today I used it to restore everything to my new Mac and it all transferred flawlessly. Another plus: it doesn’t require a separate power cable. Just plug everything into the USB-C and you are good to go. Great product.

I've been consistently impressed by its fast data transfer speeds, allowing me to quickly backup and access my files without any hassle.

Title: Good choice
Review: A good choice for an external hard drive—it's easy to use and reliable. The only issue I encountered was that the backup of my laptop suddenly stopped without any apparent reason. Aside from that, this is a great external hard drive. I suggest buying a carrying case, as the hard drive seems a bit fragile and should be kept safe.

Review: Gostei bastante do HD mas ele está R$ 486,11 mais caro. A questão aqui não chega a ser a qualidade e sim o valor excessivo do produto.Comprei o HD em maio de 2022 e até o momento (Setembro 22) ele esta funcionando perfeitamente
