    I had 2 of these prior to this purchase. One is a 250GB and the other is 500GB. Glad I purchased a 1TB. Love the size and speed of these SSD’s.

    I use it to put my photos on and edit. Use a MacBook Pro 2018 and it is an excellent choice to expand drive space. Very fast and a solid build. Got it on sale. Good buy!

    Lost One, Bought The Same Again

    We stored all our music on this, and lent it to a few friends. We lost track of who had it, and never got it back. This was a backup of our backup. I could have bought any other model/brand, but this worked well for us, so I bought it again. No cons, it's solid state, so it's completely silent. Does get a little warm (not hot) when transferring data.
