I find that retrieving info is somewhat slower than expected or slower that the same one that I already have.

These are great for external storage for DVR Recordings, extra computer storage, and security camera video.

I was surprised how light the drive assembly was and still seems to be rugged. Used it for about three weeks now and have not had any issues.

Wasn’t DOA so that’s good. Benchmarks right around 130 MB/s, seems pretty solid.

Currently using this drive as a backup drive with Time Machine on my MacBook Pro. Set up was quick and easy as Mac recognized it needed to be reformatted for use. All is well so far.

So far so good. I reformatted it easily to be Mac and PC compatible as I use multiple devices depending on my mood. The design is a nice touch, but purely cosmetic. As long as it holds up, I believe it will suit me well.

Hard Drive works well like I new it would. Small footprint. Lots of capacity in a small space. Simple design. Unobtrusive. Happy with it.

Bought this as a back-up for my photos and videos. I have huge photo files which were slowing down my laptop excessively, so I use this to store them and transfer them to a larger capacity computer for photo/video processing. Working well so far.

I edit a multi-cam TV show off these drives, with no performance issues. Highly recommend for the price.

Small and compact. I replaced the 2 big hard drive I had for this pocket one. Works perfect…

These 4TB drives have a good moderate capacity and a very compact physical size. Perfect for just about any storage needs.

I placed this drive on top of a stack of books about 9 inches high. I connected the cord it came with and went to plug it to my Surface Pro. Apparently, the Surface was a little too far for the cord and I ended up pulling the cord enough for the drive to come with it. What followed was a pretty hard thud, enough for me to be concerned about the drive. I cleared my desk and plugged in the drive only to find 300GB of files wiped out. Luckily, I’m using this drive as a backup, so nothing was actually lost. As I tried to eject it, a notification popped up preventing me from ejecting. This was new to me, as I am able to eject without any issues. I unplugged the drive anyway and upon re-plugging, a notification popped up saying the entire drive is corrupted and needs to be repaired, which I am in the process of doing. Great. For $100, I’d expect the quality of this hard drive to be a little better. If you are looking to buy a hard drive, please be take extra care into it when to open it out of the box.

There are better and faster external drives, but I have three of these and have never had a problem that I didn’t cause myself. I would recommend them for a stationary situations such as I have in my studio.
