Highlights
Quality
There's basically nothing wrong with this product that i could find.
Just upgraded the ram today to 16gb to help it along and it's a different animal with the combo.
Price
Given how much the price goes up for macbook pro’s, with larger drives, this is much more cost effective.
Shipping
Already had a samsung t5 and this seagate is just as fast on win7/10 and as fast on android once connected.
Competitiveness
Great product, really light and great for expanding your hardrive
Can't wait for ssd £/gb to drop a bit more, then i'll get a 4tb!
