    Good, rugged hard drive. Lots of space. Respectable speeds for an HDD. Misleading transfer speeds (citing cable throughput as opposed to actual disk R/W ) knocks it down a star.

    Several files have been corrupted at random on this drive about a month into ownership. This is the most useless hard drive I’ve ever purchased. The purpose of using an actual hard drive is for its ability to retain data and less likely decomposition of data. The only really nice thing about the drive is the protective casing. I should have returned it instead of assuming it would stop happening.

    Didn't Work

    Drive did not work. I could see it in the "safely remove hardware and eject media" tab, but was not in file explorer or disc management. If I had known SanDisk is a Western Digital product, I wouldn't have purchased it. I've had less than positive experiences with WD drives in recent years that resulted in loss of data.
