    If you get this on sale, its an excellent buy. I have this connected to my desktop and use it to auto back-up my files. This is my secondary storage as I have a network drive on my network as well.

    Ran out of space on my antiquated 3.5 in external drives. This looked like a go...well it is just fabulous. Plenty of storage with USB 3 connectivity. My Macbook just loves it. A great choice.

    Got it for extra storage space as my old one was filling up. The transfer speed is pretty decent for being a standard hard drive... nothing compared to a SSD though.

    It seems 2 Hard Discs are stacked together in Raid 0 configuration. Speed doesn't reach USB 3.0 speed, maximum 70MB/s transfer rate.

    Works great for PS4. Highly recommended. You'll never have to worry about space again. I notice no difference when playing games saved on this external storage vs. the PS4 hard drive.

    Who knew! When did terabytes start happening! I guess I have only been using gigabytes for so many years that I have not been paying attention. Firewire 800 is still the bomb though!
