I bought this drive for my daughter to use with her MacBook Pro when she goes to college. It's very quiet and seems durable. My only recommendation is to reformat the drive for the Timemachine even if it is preformatted for Mac as it should have taken 3 days after backing up the Timemachine for the encryption to finish. I've read that it's not a hard drive issue, it's how Macs work.
