    Looks great and matches my 5K iMac. Easy to set up literally just plug and play. Can't comment on the long term quality yet but so far everything about this drive is awesome. Speeds aren't the fastest within it's class but I'm using it strictly for my backups and the speeds are more than adequate.

    This is my second G-drive. I use the first to store music projects I mix and master go local bands. I use this G-drive for storing drone and cellphone videos which I also mix into short clips. I would buy a third without reservation if I needed one. It is an excellent storage device to free up computer memory for other uses.

    Games will run just fine off of this hard drive if it's connected via USB C. I noticed a few more hiccups in my hentai visual novels when I'm playing via USB 3.1.

    Nicely designed and FAST drive but a bit noisy. If you can handle the light ticking noise it makes, this drive is an excellent option.
