    I have two of these, and really like them.. They are small, easy to use, and don't require an AC power outlet. They are powered by the USB cord.

    I bought this as a replacement for a 500 gb hard drive. It was literally just plug it in and start using it. I would highly recommend this if you have alot of data to store or back up.

    Overall this is exactly what i was looking for, a relatively large external hard drive that wont take hours to transfer larger files. It's not too bulky and it feels very sturdy.
