Customers are saying

Many appreciate its affordable price and quiet operation, along with its compact and sleek design. The drive's size is also praised for its suitability for backing up multiple systems.

    Probably best for storage, but on a budget can be worked off of. Most likely 5200 rpm they sometimes have a hard time keeping up.
