    This hard drive performs as advertised. It is fast, easy to set up, and connects seamlessly with Time Machine. It is a bit noisy, but that is a minor point. I recommend it.

    This is my 4th G-Technology drive, and we also use 10 with one of my clients, and these drives are built right. We have not experienced a failure on a single drive.

    Most of the other brands I've tried out end up crapping out a bit soon! I haven't had this long enough to know but so far, so good. I will update. The good reviews made me try it.

    This unit reminds me of the old school firewire Lacie drives. It's metal, solid, heavy, and seems to be stable.

    We have several Ext. Hard Drives, but this one is one of the BEST, yet! I use it as my system backup for my iMac & setup was without a hitch. It has an "on/off" switch, which I utilized in between backups. I would highly recommend for anyone needing a reliable backup for their system.

    Which is store movies and back up my computer. The light on the front is easily hidden by my semi neat desk :) and when I am in the house alone it is quieter than the usual house noises ( refrigerator,etc.) so I do not hear it.

    G Drive is a good brand. The thunderbolt cable is good for a faster speed to read the content in the hard drive. If you have a Mac, then I recommend you a G drive hard drive.

    I needed a drive that could hook up either to my Mac or to my Windows machine. Although I can't hook up the drive to both machines simultaneously, it does work one at a time.
