Smaller, thinner rims. Blue is a stylish light blue. you are doing great work

I bought 3 to replace my 2012 external drive when I bought a new Win10 PC. All 3 drives work great. I bought everything in blue. Very pretty. They are lighter and thinner than the previous ones. I had to buy longer cables for them. The cable that works with them is very short. Made to use a laptop but not to install a desktop PC.

Pros
  • Looks great
Cons
  • Socket required

NOT RESISTANT - External hard drives

I have recovered about half of the data so far. It was an arduous process of keeping the cord a certain way (yes, I changed it a few times) while crossing my fingers in the hope that things would move. I suggest you keep looking.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Some errors

WAS Extremely slow, best on external hard drives

I wanted to store multiple MKV video files, each around 1GB. I got transfer speeds of 6-12 MB/s when copying files. It didn't matter if I was copying multiple files or doing a single file transfer. The disc has good reviews and is often described as very fast. I almost got it back. I tested the drive with HDTune and the speed ranges from 128MB/s to 90MB/s. Normal good performance. I did some research and did everything that was suggested including reformatting to NTFS (it was formatted as…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Unsafe

Get ready to fail!

I have bought 5 of these drives in the last 6 months and have used them for both Time Machine and Carbon Copy Cloner on several new iMacs bought in March/April. 2 of them are already FAILED (less than 5 months in production)! I first spent an hour on the phone with Revain tech support (because I was trying to get a refund). I was sent to Seagate for another two hours of interesting and stimulating Hindinglish talks. I have confidential company documents on both failed drives, so I don't want to

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Small warehouse with large capacity.

This device can store a lot of data in a small, compact memory. I love having a portable hard drive so I can backup my laptop because they are notorious for glitches or crashes and tired of losing all my photos, music and college. Ideal for all your storage needs.

Pros
  • Fits many
Cons
  • Large and bulky

Software not working - EDIT: hard drive fell apart after 2 months

The backup software has many problems, basically it creates a new archive every time it creates a backup. It should only update new files and files that have changed. Fail. Hardware works well, 3 stars for that. Edit: The hard drive started crashing the computer, after I removed it the problem was resolved. I filled out the RMA information and even though it's been 2 months they want me to pay for shipping. My advice, go to Western Digital. I'm having trouble transferring at USB3.0 speed, but…

Pros
  • High quality construction
Cons
  • too stupid
