Happy with this product

Happy to have this. It's easy to set up. Requires external power. Long USB 3.0 cable included. It does what it says it does. I use it for video storage and multiple computer hard drive mirrors. I liked the Nero backup software at first, but could never get the cloud storage to work.
Pros:
  • Fast
  • Quiet
  • Reliable
  • Solid
  • Substanstial
Cons:
  • Needs better software
  • No Windows 7 Backup
  • Runs hot
