Did some research on this item before purchase and I was so excited to have one available at my local store. Kind of a odd size, but still plenty of room for my needs. After looking at the stats I was looking forward to get this on my computer. Well it is faster than any external drive I have ever owned. It is still not faster than my extreme flash drive. The diags for this, rated the speed around 180-200 mbs ( was supposed to be up to 5gbs via USB 3.0). I am happy with it as is, but wish it was closer to the advertised speed. I can play all my online games on it with no issues. Run heavy programs like Photoshop and Premiere with little to no lag. So all in all I was glad I got it and wished I could have afforded the larger version.

Needed more storage for photos, music and other media files, typically would pick up an additional micro SD type card, but spotted this on the shelf and went for it. For the price, hard to beat i think. It's well made, transfers files quickly, and is plenty portable. Works great for my needs.
