As it uses a USB Type-A format, it can be used with most PCs and laptops without any issue. Do note that, it does not come with a USB Type-C cable, at least in the box. This means you might not be able to use the WD Elements SE Pocket-Sized External SSD with modern MacBooks, at least without an additional Type-A to Type-C adapter.

For the asking price, the WD Elements SE Pocket-Sized External SSD seems like a good product, especially for those, who want a compact yet powerful storage device.
