Some difficulty with connection

"The capacity and setup for this drive are great. Over time, however, the connection is less reliable. After a year - I have to play with the cord to get it to connect properly.

"I learned the hard way. I bought the portable hard drive after the hard drive on my laptop died.

I bought the Verbatim rather than go with an online backup service for speed and security.

I did my research and this met my needs at a reasonable price. "

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
