    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.

    Great price for the amount of space. Works perfectly as of the first month of use. There is a moderate noise when the drive is starting, but it goes away after the drive is active like most HDDs.

    Pretty good for a standard storage for gaming. I'd recommend getting an extended storage along with it.

    Not super but it holds a lot and meets my needs nicely. A good value. Note: you will need Sara and power cables and to partition the drive once you’ve installed it

    I'm going to start out by admitting that I was looking for a different brand but decided to take a chance on these because the price was a hell of a lot less. I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised. I bought two 8 TB drives, set them up RAID in a docking station and they've been working great. I was somewhat surprised with the speed. Maybe they're not the fastest on the market,- I wouldn't know, but they're more than adequate for me.
