Dealing with Passwords

The promo text said that it had "backup password protection." I assumed it was the same as another Toshiba product I have that has an encrypted password program installed. Not the case with this product. After much time trying to figure it out, I realized that the "password protection" was for the "back up" files you can put in the cloud. HOWEVER I discovered that you can easily use Windows Bit Locker with Windows 7 to 10. It encrypts it and allows a password. You can use it on any Windows device. If you have a problem with the volume, go to Computer Management (right click the drive icon) and select the drive and make it all one volume and reformat it. I would have saved a lot of time if Toshiba had been more specific about what "backup password protection" entails, but, it is a good deal overall.Read full review
