Does this work like a usb flash drive?
I'm looking for something that works like a flash drive...plug it in and copy from the hard drive or an SD card and paste it onto the external drive...is the the drive for me or is there something else that I should get? I don't want to have to install any software to read and use the drive. Thanks.
Yes, technically you could do this but because it's a traditional hard drive and has moving parts it's not an ideal mobile drive. Since they make large capacity flash drives now I would just buy one of those since they are much more durable for what you want to do.
