    This storage device has so much storage and for such a great price, especially when you consider how much food costs have increased!

    If you want something for gaming not a good choice it will bog down your read and write speed and load times are terrible. If you are looking for something for office work with nothing intensive this is what you want. I did not know too much about the differences at first and listened to the people at best buy and I can tell you they have no idea either.

    This hard-drive does the bare minimum job. It works. Its cheap, but their is no way to mount it in my computer. So it is loose i don't like that. When i move i can hear it slide around and it scares me it will break something else. But the memory itself is a brick. I almost gave it 4 stars because its a lot of memorie for cheap but how much does a mounting bracket cost they should always come with their own.
