USB 3.1 and SMART monitoring on my Mac (with 3rd party drivers installed)

This is an early review (I've only had it a week) but I'm happy with it so far Pros: - SMART- Utility with SAT driver SMART gives me Smartmontools SMART monitoring support on my iMac. - Only tested on USB 3.0 so far, but the speed limiter was not the case with the drive. - The drive is very easy to mount and fits well under my monitor on the side. Smart future-proofing as more computers support USB 3.1. The only noise is from the drive itself (airflow), which means you have to keep it away from warm things (e.g. not together with other drives); If you're using a high-performance drive, I recommend keeping it upright.

Good stuff
