TOSHIBA EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE

I had a crisis the other day when my SD card wouldn’t read my phone and I was afraid I would lose all 4,000 plus photos. I didn’t want to transfer that many to my laptop so I knew I needed to come up with another plan. After checking a variety of external hard drives, I found this Toshiba portable external hard drive with 1 TB of storage.  I choose the royal blue and it’s about the size of my phone!

I have an old dinosaur external hard drive that holds 250 GB but that plugs into a wall outlet, then into the computer.  It’s amazing how something so small can hold so much!

My new Toshiba Canvio Connect II portable external hard drive doesn’t need electricity, I can just plug it directly into my computer with the cable that is included.  With the four rubber feet on the bottom of the unit, it keeps from slipping when on my desk or table. It’s small, compact and I can carry it with me when traveling so I can transfer photos as needed.  With the 1 TB storage amount, I have plenty of space for not only photos but also for my files and other downloads.  I am so relieved that I was able to transfer my photos effortlessly with the Toshiba external hard drive that I received in only two days.  I am pleased with the quality and size of this product which I purchased at full price for my personally use and all opinions in this review are my own.

    I need to get me one of those. I want to get one merely for photos storage. How many photos roughly do you think one of those can hold?

      That’s basically what I wanted it for also Sandy. I don’t know much about Terabytes but I just found this explanation: “Assuming that the avg size photo is 500K, then a 1TB HD will hold around 2 million photos.” That’s a LOT of photos! I like how small and portable this one is plus it comes in a few other color selections. Thanks for popping in!
