    It's a little slow to start up, and using it for video editing is a pain, but it's great for storing large files (and a lot of them).

    Good price for what you get. Speed is not my priority, space is. And this drive provides the space I need for my large library of videos.

    Drive is relatively fast and lots of storage. Bummer there's no LED to show if On/off or asleep. Older version had that feature. Knocked a star off for that.
