    so far so good. I have purchased a second drive. i purchased one for my son's X-Box. I needed extra space to manage photo files. I have been able to load and edit pictures thanks to the extra drive space. also do not need extra power source to drive. drive is compact and easy to connect.

    I bought this d/t PC space filled up quick with numerous games and I had no clue how to properly place them. So far, it's still holding up and has plenty of remaining space on it. Will buy again with another PC purchase.

    Straight forward plug-and-play installation on my MacBook Air 15 docking bar. Currently using it for Apple TimeMachineBackup. The first backup took a while, but now everything is working great.
