    Love the 3.0 USB file transfer speeds. Device does take a second to start up if it's been idle on PC for a long time.

    This rating is based solely on quality control on the device as it is shipped from the factory. When I got home and opened the packaging, there was a part rattling around inside the device. I returned it and selected a different product from a different company. Since I did not actually use this particular external hard drive, I cannot comment on any of its behaviors during use.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
