    I use this to store digital versions of my CD and DVD collection so it is accessible on our network. I have seen a few reviews that say this drive is loud. I couldn't disagree more. I never hear this drive at all. and again, it is fast. I highly recommend this drive for media storage or basic back-ups.

    I purchased this to do a daily back up of my office Data. The tech at Best Buy said it was compatible with Windows Server 2008, which I found it really is NOT. I was able to download some drivers and now I have it working. I don't know if this is a property of the device, or using on Windows Server, but I can NOT access or look at the drive, like in Explorer. I do know it is working, though

    So far I've had no issues with this hard drive. I purchased it for my son's Xbox one to expand storage. He has all his games stored on it and there is still tons of room left. It will take a long time and a lot content to fill this drive. It actually looks good sitting next to the Xbox also, looks like it was made to go with it.
