      I have been using this drive for a few weeks as a picture and video drive. Drive speed is better than 120MB/s with USB3 so great for video rendering. Its backed up to a Fantom Black drive, we'll see how long it lasts.

      The drive was easy to set up. All I had to do is take it out of the box and plug it in. These normally last two years.

      Happy with the drive, but the backup software is pretty basic. I set it up as a network drive, but the software only works if it is directly connected to the PC. I have not had any issues with the drive. Works as expected.

      I bought several backups for my computer and this one seams a little bit to big. So I do not choose to use it as a portable option but as a backup for my stationary computer.

      I had some initial difficulties hooking it up to my Mac. Despite the tries on the "easy" way to format it for a Mac, It failed. I had some tech help and it is a great product! No problems once it was formatted properly.
