Don't fall into the "cheap " trap, buy a premium brand that really works!

Stay away from this "deal". After formatting for my Mac, which failed on the first try, I ran a hard drive speed test. Read results are okay, but this drive doesn't even write 10MB/s consistently despite being advertised as 50x faster! With repeated tests, the hard drive speed gradually dropped to less than 2MB/s. It's completely useless for editing photos or videos, or even for a simple backup of my hard drive. I had to shell out an extra $30 to get a 1TB drive from Samsung or SanDisk.

Pros

Pleasant

Cons

Slightly torn
