    For the amount of storage it has, I feel it was a good value for the amount of money I paid for the product. I don't have any complaints on it thus far.

    I need a large storage device for video. I would not recommend editing video in premiere off the drive, it's not like a thunderbolt, but it's very good for storage and transfer of large amounts of data.

    Overall, it is the capacity that I needed and with another backup program, it works great. I would have saved the $10 and got the one without the backup software if I knew it didn't do network drives.
