Perfect for my iPhone backups
I bought this to free up space on my phone and it works flawlessly. The metal casing feels very premium and durable. Transfer speeds are fast enough for large video files.

Sleek and portable
Love how thin and light this is. I throw it in my bag every day without worrying about it breaking. The plug-and-play feature saved me so much time setting it up.

Great value, slight heating
For the price, you can't beat the storage capacity. It gets a little warm after an hour of continuous use, but nothing concerning. Works great with my laptop.

Good drive, needs specific cable for phone
The drive itself is solid, but remember you need a Lightning to USB adapter for iPhones which isn't included. Once I got the right adapter, it worked fine.

Reliable storage solution
I've been using this for three months to store work documents and photos. No issues whatsoever. The read/write speeds are consistent and reliable.

Solid build quality
The aluminum body gives it a nice weight and feel. It seems like it could survive a drop or two. Fast enough for everyday tasks like document editing and photo viewing.
Q: Is the cable detachable?
A: No, this model features a built-in retractable USB connector design for portability, so there is no separate detachable cable.
Q: Can I use this directly with an iPhone 14?
A: Yes, but you will need a Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter or a USB-C to Lightning cable depending on your specific iPhone model to connect the drive.
Q: Does this come formatted for Mac or Windows?
A: The drive comes pre-formatted for Windows, but it can be easily reformatted for Mac or used with exFAT for compatibility with both systems.
Q: Does it require external power?
A: No, the KESU Portable Hard Drive is bus-powered via the USB connection and does not require an external power source.
Q: What is the actual usable space on the 1TB model?
A: Due to system formatting and overhead, the actual usable space is typically around 930GB to 950GB, which is standard for all 1TB drives.
