Not perfect quality, there is a small defect.

I stood in the external HDD Transcend, while connecting to the computer, hit a little. It didn’t start anymore - when connected, it made 20 thin squeaks and did not even try to start. After re-reading a bunch of forums, only 1 repair option was found - in Soviet style. Suddenly it helped! It was imprinted into linoleum from a height of 20 cm with the addition of initial acceleration and good parting words. Wound up like a nice little, SMART said that everything is fine, all indicators are normal. Nevertheless, there are some unreadable files, which is sad, because there were video materials from lectures / master classes on the CDM .
It remains only to leave a disk for backups in the system unit, because it is not clear what will happen to it with sudden changes in position in space, so there is no desire to even put it in a laptop.

Pros

Quiet, data transfer speed 27-30MB/sec. (according to win7)

Cons

It heats up quite intensely compared to a Hitachi laptop at 7200 rpm .

Pros below: if the hard drive dies before the end of the warranty the merits are unimportant. Its cons: died seven months later, the surface was covered with troubles.
