Fast, easy to use, portable drive
It is a very fast and simple to use drive, with 5TB of disk space. It makes it easy to carry around a ton of data in a small reliable package.

Nothing but problems
I was hoping this would be useable as a backup drive for my other external drives. So far, it's ok but it REGULARLY and CONSTANTLY has to be repaired. Three times now I've had to repair the drive, and I've only had it 3 months. Very disappointed since the price was below. Well I guess now I know why it is.

Great value
If using a pc, run a quick format before using to convert to ntfs. The drive will then store data much faster

Great External Hard Drive
Worked great in a MacBook Pro Retina, didn't need to format it, just plugged it in and it works great.

Works well with one caveat
I got this to replace a 1GB hard drive that was at capacity. It works fine and is plug-and-play. My one complaint is that with it plugged in my desktop computer won't boot up. Where I use the drive for back and Photoshop scratch disc, I just leave it unplugged until I need it, a minor inconvenience at best.
