  • Summary: Bought 3 of these over time, all the drives still work but I removed them from the case and running in NAS. The USB3 base is perfect for that ghetto mod.
  • Pros: price flexibility
  • Cons: once you crack the case open the warranty is done

Works fine, needs more options for connections

  • Summary: One previous Seagate, a portable, died after seven months. But, optimist that I am, I decided this one fit my needs best and that the bad one must have been a freak.
  • Pros: It works as it should.
  • Cons: Electrical brick covers two receptacles. Should have a connection for ThunderBolt or FireWire, not just USB.
