Transferring wedding footage from an ssd to this hard drive moved at a steady 170mb/s. Files move faster on and off the drive, and i can now play files from the drive smooth and seamless. Click on the erase button in the finder to delete a folder.

Cons
Ntfs is not fully compatible with mac computers. Gbs of software is unlikely. It is slowwwwww transferring data. It slows down my pc and mac tremendously.

Highlights
Quality
It’s well put together and doesn’t break since i’ve been having mine for 1-2 or more years and it hasn’t broken down
Sturdy build quality gives me confidence in its durability.
I have a mac & when i was trying to paste my photos/videos it wasn’t working.
Not nearly enough, and due to its labeling, was begging to be stolen.
Price
Good product for the price and fast shipping
For under $20 i got a 2t hard drive with a c connector and a digital face that lets you know whatncharge is there.
