    If you need an hdd from a reliable brand this is your best shot. My only complaint is that it's loud, and that's because it's an hdd.

    You could hear the hard drive revs when you access it, imagine a spooling turbo. No biggie, it’s a mechanical hard drive.

    The drive is being used as a backup drive. It has been running well since I've had it, although I can't speak to any speeds since it is connected via USB.
