    For the price - not significantly different from the Toshiba units I have - it is much faster, noticeably smaller and feels better built (build quality feel is admittedly a personal opinion). It reads and writes faster than my Toshiba USB 3.0 units. So far it is also very reliable.

    When I first plugged in this external drive, I was very impressed with how quickly it booted. I have a WD passport also and it does not come up anywhere close as quickly as this Seagate drive does. Beyond that this unit is like any other drive. It holds data!

    And always good for a Mac. I work in graphics, at home and an office, I have 3 of these in various iterations, and other than various cloud services, they are one of the handiest investments we can make in quickly, easily, and reliably storing and moving files.

    I bought this 2TB HDD for use in a PS4 Pro, and it works perfectly. It does need to be dismantled in order to use it that way, but it was a very easy process, and I was able to put the old HDD inside this case to make an external 1TB HDD. It works flawlessly.

    I can't believe how tiny this thing can hold. I recommend investing in one of these things. I put all my photos and video projects on this one and there's still a lot of storage left! It was difficult to transfer files from a Mac to another but Google saved the day.

    Great Price. Works Great. The device is metal so it feels sturdier than plastic alternatives.
