Because of it's cheaper build quality than WD and the problems I've had with it connecting to my laptop which is what I bought it for, I cant recommend this drive.
Small; lots of space and affordable
I have owned this drive for over 2 years; While it's worked fine on my home computer and an older laptop with USB 2,0, I have have problems with it disconnecting often when copying files, large directories and watching movies from it on my Acer laptop.
So, straight out of the packaging, plugged into the pc (USB 3.0 Port) and started to transfer files, various different files of various size, approx 20GB worth ... this particular drive is SLOW, so SLOW it would make you weep, six and a half hour's to transfer 20GB .....
Although the speed of external USB hard drives are a bit slow due to the limitations of USB, having 750 gigs of backup space is simply awesome. Transporting an external device such as this one that requires a power supply and cables can be a bit clumsy, but it's nice to know that any Windows 2000/XP...
I am in the middle of busy season and ran out of space, so I finally reorganized my backups. This is perfect since I don't need to access it all the time and it fits anywhere, but eventually I should go the RAID way. For now two handmade backups work.
Easy to set up and use anywhere. Very quick and looks great. Highly recommended and value for money.
Don't buy this u will have no warranty in India waste of money u can't cancel the order also if u want forcebly cancel the order you have to lose half of ur money better to not buy this product
These drives have been very reliable, work almost everywhere, and have four colors to choose from. General advice is that any new disk drive should be fully tested before you start using it for important files. There are free programs for this; unfortunately, I can't post links in this review.
New models are slightly faster than three years ago (see 2014-02-06 review): now about 33 MB/s for full disk reads (16 hours) and 29 MB/s for full disk writes; The drives seem to produce less heat than earlier models and there was no noticeable reduction in speed during continuous activity.
Slower than external disk drives that have their own power supply; Macintosh users should reformat these drives for the HFS+ file system (or Time Machine), rather than accepting the default NTFS format (PC).
Very high quality. I have owned other portable hard disk drives in the past but this looks like a different class. I still does very much the same job but it looks very cool.
I have literally thrown in bin. LW wont do anything about it. Better off going to John lewis. Waste of money avoid!
None; Data Transfer Slow; Slow; Cable not long enough
