    I picked this up because I was running out of space on my older 2TB WD external drive. The transfer speeds are not bad and the pricing was on par with other drives with these specs. It does what its supposed to do.

    Drive doesnt require additional power supply so it is good for when you are on the go. Uses 3.0 usb so write times are really fast. Small form factor is also a plus.
