Product ReviewsToshiba CANVIO 3.0 500 GB,External,5400 RPM (E05A050CAU3XW) Hard Drive

Awesome product! great price here on Ebay! Great Value for the money!

I bought the Toshiba Canvio 3.0 500gb because my laptop space was getting low. I did some online research and picked the Toshiba over all other models because of, the speed, performance, design and size. My Toshiba has been going great. I love the speed, with a 2.0 usb hub, the ease of use, just plug it in and your set, and the size. I have 2 500 gb Toshibas and they both fit in my laptop case for easy travel and storage. I also plan on buying a 1 tb Toshiba. No dislikes at all. That's rare for me about a product but the Toshiba, in my opinoin is awesome. 5 stars!Read full review...

Speed is great, compatibility not as universal.

This drive performs quite well in a USB 3.0 port. It transfer rate it slightly above the WD drive that I have that is similar. However, there is one drawback -- it's isn't 100% backwards compatible to some OS's and may need additional drivers. (whereas a WD does not). A good example of that is that it doesn't support Wii's external storage medium, nor does it work as an add-on to certain DVR devices.Read full review...

Really great, fast and powerful external hardrive..

This is an amazing External Hardrive, the transfer rate in USB 3.0 is
really fast, and when I say fast, is FAST.. I have made a backup of my
entiry blueray movies collection (about 390 gb) in just 3-4 minutes..
I have nothing to complain. The included backup software is really
user friendly and everyone is able to manage it.. It's also compact
and I can take it with me to everywhere, so I have my information just
a few clicks away from me.. Loving this..Read full review...

This product is Wonderful and easy to use product. Life saving when backing up my laptop. :) I would recommend this hard drive to anyone looking to preform a backup.

Confused at first but I'm happy now.

I love this product. I'm not a computer geek but I knew what I wanted this HD to do but couldn't get a thing out of it. There is no written instructions for it It has some internal support software but I'm no geek. The HD set in my desk draw for 2 weeks. Someone said to call Toshiba, so I did. Their CS person was very friendly & in 5 minutes I got the HD to do every thing that I expected from it. I couldn't be more pleased.Read full review...
