It's fast enough to do a complete initial time machine in under an hour and small enough to fit handily in my laptop bag. I prefer to use disks like these for Time Machine as it makes restoring the system easier than using a NAS type Time Machine device.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Can this be used to access a HD removed from a MBP?

Does this open up to insert a HD?! I purchased it intending to back up files from my new MBP (10.10.4 running Yosemite) as well as access another HD from my previous MBP (10.6.8 running Snow Leopard). Awhile back I had a HD fail on a previous MBP of mine and I purchased an external HD to encase a new HD--I don't see that this one opens up though (to insert the HD)... or does it and I just can't figure it out?! THX
This already has a drive installed, and while I'm sure it could be opened, you'd be wasting money. Look for a USB or Thunderbolt 2.5" disk enclosure instead that's designed for just the purpose you need.

Mac OSX 10.75...

is this external hard drive with USB connections....compatible with my mac? I was told to ask if it uses the 'old' USB connection or the 'new' USB connection. My Mack is about 4-5 years old.
There's really no difference between USB 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0 connections, at least as far as the computer is concerned. They're all backwards compatible. My Macbook Pro is a 2011 model with USB 2.0 and it works just fine.
