What you get: 2 TB portable drive

This Toshiba Canvio Advance Plus is a 2 TB external hard drive in a 2.5 inch form factor. It connects through a single USB 3.0 port and draws power from the host. The honey coloured enclosure includes a textured finish. Two cables are supplied: USB-A to Micro-USB Type B and USB-C to Micro-USB Type B.

Capacity and transfer headroom

The drive offers 2 TB of storage formatted in NTFS and supports USB 3.0 at 5.0 Gbps, falling back to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0 ports. It handles everyday backups, media libraries and document archives. Sustained throughput will be limited by the mechanical drive inside the enclosure, so very large single-file transfers or continuous write workloads will run slower than the interface maximum.

Build fit: cables, power and software

Bus powered operation means no external adapter is required, freeing a mains socket and reducing cable clutter. The drive works with Windows 10, Windows 11 and macOS 12 through 14. Included software enables automatic backup scheduling and password authentication. The supplied USB-A and USB-C cables cover most current laptops and desktops without extra adapters.

Questions about this item

Will the USB 3.0 interface run at full speed on my older laptop that only has USB 2.0 ports?

The drive negotiates to 480 Mbps over USB 2.0, so it works but transfers at USB 2.0 rates.

How can I confirm the automatic backup and password authentication features are active after I connect the drive?

Open the included software on Windows 10, 11 or macOS 12 through 14; the dashboard shows backup status and lets you set a password.

Which cables come in the box and do I need a separate adapter for a USB-C only computer?

A USB-A to Micro-USB Type B cable and a USB-C to Micro-USB Type B cable are both included, so no extra adapter is required.
