    I have had many of these external hard drives over the years - fewer as the storage capacity increases. They have never failed me and are easy to use.

    I can’t copy large hunk of files.

    As title said, I cannot copy large hunk of files. I was trying to transfer files from my old phones to this external drive, but when ever I tried to copy a folder that has a lot of data (the folder was only 5GB in total) it estimated that it’ll take 40 mins to transfer and I always ran into an error midway. To bypass this problem, I had to copy a little data at a time. •The build quality is okay. •I can’t give a rating on speed because this is my first External Hard Drive. •It’s very easy to use. I’m just disappointed that I can’t transfer files larger than 5GB in one go. My fault for going the cheap route for something important. Next time I’ll go for SanDisk.

    It works great. I'd give it a 5 if I could figure out if the reason it keeps disappearing from my Dish Network DVR is because of a glitch in the drive or a glitch in their service.
