SKU CH-EPSS-15H1J

Portable storage for creators

The Toshiba Canvio Advance 4TB portable external hard drive gives creators high storage capacity in a compact design with a stylish, textured finish. It offers easy access to stored content and time-tested reliable performance anywhere life takes them. Automatic backup software and password protection software are available as free downloads for Windows PC only. The drive is formatted NTFS for Windows PC out of the box.

Capacity and headroom

Four terabytes provide ample space for large media libraries, project files and backups so you can keep working without constantly managing free space. The drive runs out of room when the formatted capacity is filled, which will be slightly less than the decimal figure due to formatting overhead. Reformatting is required for Mac computers and compatibility may vary depending on hardware configuration and operating system.

USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 interface

The drive connects via USB 3.0 and remains compatible with USB 2.0 ports, so it works with a wide range of computers. Transfer speeds are limited by the USB 2.0 standard when plugged into older ports, and actual throughput will vary with the host controller and cable quality. No other interface or protocol is supported by this device.
