    I returned this external hard drive because I paid around $70 for this 1 TB, it wasn't big enough to store the data recovery being done, and for about $50 more, I got a 5 TB Seagate hard drive.

    I needed a cheap way to move half a T by USB on a late eve job. Did the trick for a low price in a pinch. I'll keep using it when there is not a time crunch.
