    I am a Computer Forensic Expert and it is very important that I buy drives that are durable, boot up quickly and perform to specification. This drive performed well and boots quickly and after loading data to the drive over 30 times it still is operating at spec.

    This is a nice upgrade for a laptop or even a playstation. Only reason i bought it because i wanted a bigger harddrive for my playstaion 4, because newer games nowadays takes so much space of your harddrive. Even though this is external it can be internal by taking it out of the enclosure, and being able to use it for my playstation 4 is a must if you like to play or store games in your system.
