    Bought this to replace WD My Book that failed after only 2 years of use. Hopefully this Seagate model will last quite a bit longer.

    Have had no issues with this drive. The USB 3.0 is more than enough speed moderate for day to day transfers. Only con is that this drive tends to be on the noisier end of things.
