    Bought this to back up files from a laptop, works as expected, somewhat overpriced in my opinion. The strange connector scares me some, because if I ever lost the cable with this hard drive, it looks like I would have to buy a specific proprietary type/uncommon.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I had previously purchased some WD drives which worked fine but were a bit bulkier. I like the slim compactness of this Seagate drive better, and it appears to run slightly faster than the WD drives also.
