    I bought it to replace my external HDD. I move a lot and my table is prone to vibrate and external HDDs are vulnerable to vibrations. This SSD works perfectly for my situation.

    The quality is great for the price. If I need to get another one I will not hesitate to do it. I hate that the letters fade again if you put the SSD in your backpack.

    Great little drive if you can spare the cash. You can get a drives with a lot more space for a lot les money but they won't be nearly as compact or fast.

    Compact configuration that I've seen worn around the neck on a loop of string/cord/ribbon. I haven't done a speed test but it certainly seems fast enough.
