    Couldn't be happier..

    • Written by

    I needed storage for my media and iTunes library, and this drive fitted the bill. It's large and fast, but most importantly for me it looks great. I'm a real fan of brushed aluminium look. It's also quiet, doesn't buzz or make annoying sounds and it doesn't overheat even after several hours of continuous work.

    Great!

    This was my second choice... I purchased a Seagate 1 TB hard drive prior, but it was a nightmare and didn't work well with my iMac.

    This drive is a lot more compact and better design... also no issues at all with my iMac.
    Very satisfied.

    Great design, really fast over USB3

    • Written by from Farmingdale

    I really like this drive, I've had it for a few months and transfers are fast but without the crazy cost of Thunderbolt. Also, it's cross compatible to any computer with USB3, which can be important if you ever need to transfer files to/from a PC.

    One minor nitpicky thing is that the metal casing, though very premium and solid, is a bit sharp. I actually ended up rounding the corners and edges a tiny bit with a file myself after realizing that normal wear and tear wasn't taking the edge off. Note to the designers for version 1.01: increase that fillet radius just a bit for us.

    Good backup drive

    • Written by

    Really nice drive. Very easy to use. I plugged it in, it connected instantaneously. I've set it up with Time Machine and that was pretty much it. The first full backup was very fast over USB 3. The rest I don't even notice. The build quality is awesome, the enclosure perfectly complements the look of my MacBook Pro. The drive is also very quiet, and very durable.

    Excellent portable drive

    • Written by

    I'd recommend this drive to anyone who travels often and needs to work with large files. I'm an amateur travel photographer and you can imagine just how much storage space I need. I've got two drives like this that I take with me on trips. It's usually enough to backup 7-10 days' worth of work. When I get home, I move the data across to my iMac and process it. USB 3.0 certainly helps. File transfers don't take much time anymore.

    Peace of mind

    The drive performs as advertised. The speed with USB 3 is amazing. It's quiet, and well made. The unit came with all the cables. I use it with Time Machine. No qualms so far. I'd recommend this drive to anyone who needs a reliable and easy to use drive.
