Good value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's compact, it's efficient, and it wasn't especially expensive. Backup drives are only exciting when they don't work right. This one is not exciting. That's good.

Best small storage unit for your files
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This external drive is so easy to use and gives plenty of storage space for my use during the next several years. It is smaller than a cell phone and I can carry it with me in my purse. So useful and can only recommend it.

Drive is fast however case is fragile
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The drive itself is as fast as you would expected for a first gen usb 3.1 SSD. Doing some speed testing I am getting around 400MB/s reads and writes. The drive itself aside the build quality of the case is pretty terrible. This drive sits on top of my computer or goes into a separate pocket of my backpack. After a few weeks of sitting on top of my computer with nothing else around it, I go to pick up the drive to put in my backpack and the case just falls apart. I snapped it back together and it held for another few uses before again it fell apart. After doing this for a few days I ended up wrapping it in some scotch tape and calling it a day since it did in fact still work. With the tape the case stays together now just fine.

External hard drive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm replacing a 3 year old WD drive. This is solid state and hopefully will last a little longer. Set up was not intuitive. The quick start guide was nothing more than arbitration waivers in 16 languages!
