    Tiny Package, Great Price

    I was looking for a "no-frills" external drive to work with classified information on my iMac. With the 1TB OWC EXPRESS, I'm able to keep all the files in one place, avoid CLOUD and other possible security risks, and personally deliver the files to my clients directly. Once they have the files, I can erase the drive and start the next project. The advantage is it's LOW price, tiny size (I can carry it like a cell phone), and fast, SSD reliability. Once again, OWC proves shopping elsewhere` is simply a waste of time.

    I would recommend this product to a friend!
