Easy to set up, quiet operation. Pretty much says what it does what it says on the tin. Recommended.

As previosly said very good, does what it says, the only funny is that if like me you have two one to backup the other, you have to create a folder on the one that is the Backup, when creating the folder make sure you tick the Backup tick box. It does not make this clear in the paperwork, this is why it got a 4/5 not 5/5.
