    This is my 2nd purchase of an Easystore 5TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive. I loved the first one (still in use) and the second one is just as outstanding.

    This little drive can store A LOT of data. I mean, wow. I do a lot of video restoration for clients and I store raw video data in these drives, and it's still barely half full, my only complain with this drive is that it takes FOOOOREEEEVER to spin up and start. The unit takes about 8 seconds for it to be "usable" even if it's been plugged in for a while. It has a built-in power saving feature which turns off the hard drive platters from spinning. They'll need to spin back up to their desired speed before reading or writing could start. I find this annoying since I'm working with footage in real-time and I have to hit the "record" button once I get a synced video signal (working with analog footage), and sometimes they'll be an 8 second lag and I have to compensate by clicking earlier

    So far so good. Already have a smaller one of this brand for backups and decided to buy a larger 5TB. Nice space-saving size and it doesn't need to hog an outlet spot either.

    This hard drive is really small and compact and easy to travel with. I’ve always seen hard drives which are bulky and heavy especially for this amount of storage so this find was great!
