    This one didn't work so well for me and I returned it. It was pretty slow, and had some connection issues. I was lured by the brand name as I've got another non-SSD drive from them that I use every day, but this didn't seem up to their normal standards. Maybe it was the one I got, I don't know. I'm on a Mac, BTW.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

  • Great size and fast

    Hooked it up to my new Mac Pro and it worked immediately. It's quiet and it runs in the background w/o intervention.

    Ease of use is not at all easy. Followed directions installed software and it still would not recognize it on my laptop. Had to return it for a regular seagate.

    It does what I purchased it for. However, if I had known how tedious this evaluation is, I would not have began it.
