    I bought this external drive to backup my files, where speed was not of too much importance. Drives that draw power through the USB port (as opposed to external power sources) typically spin at 5400 rpm (as opposed to 7200 rpm when powered by an external source) and as such are not truly fast. But this drive does exactly what I expected to have. So, no regrets.

    I'm a Seagate and Western Digital fan - some sway one direction or the other. I just get what will server its purpose and is financially appropriate. This drive is priced right and the read/write speeds are awesome. So far, not seeing any usage issues.

    The product works well; but the user interface is lousy. The instructions on a thumb drive are much better.
