    Good for desktop, speedier and unlikely any problem with it. The small portable ones (without power plugin) is more convenient but tend to have problem such as unreadable in a sudden.

    I got in during a sale and it looks like its worth the price. These are rated to run at slower speeds for long connectivity.

    The storage space is huge. But it is very noisy once you start it or use it for Time Machine backup. I always eject the hard drive immediately after use, so I can have a quiet room.
