Waste of money in my review

I recently purchased an external hard drive for my computer and decided to go with this product .After i put it to the TEST, I was extremely disappointed. The transfer speeds were excruciatingly slow and the device itself felt cheaply made. While it did offer a decent amount of storage space it ultimately wasn't worth the money I spent on it..

Pros
  • Offers sufficient storage space.
Cons
  • Cheaply made, slow transfer speeds.

Drive Fails on First Use

When drives fail, they usually fail immediately after installation. In this situation it was. After working on it for a few days, it's time to come back. I will look for a more reliable manufacturer. Now the temporary disconnection from the computer can also be the cable. but my experience usually shows that the cable has to be touched or moved a bit to disconnect it. The fact is that this disc just disappeared and reappeared. Sometimes in an hour, sometimes twice in 3 minutes. I have many…

Pros
  • A little above
Cons
  • Good, but not great
