What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Smaller than my last drive (previously i had a wd drive that was about the size of my full hand) but it has twice the storage capacity! Great money to space ratio. High-capacity 2tb storage at a great price.
The case has a small blue led light that lets you know it is powered, and blinks when it is being accessed. Usb, for use of the dvr upgrade, comes with the cables to attach to the new macbooks. Single usb to power and transfer.
It doesn't overheat, is dead silent, and is a quality product made by seagate. Thumbs up for sure. Just my two-cents.
Cons
This item is unusably slow. Completely worthless. All in all junk.
The first thing i did is remove this drive from the enclosure. Recognized by device manager, but could not permanently assign drive letter or access either drive, using file manager, a partition manager or anything else.

Shipping
We manage a lot of video and this one is fast and reliable so far.
Have 4 month using it , and is fast for edit on it.
If you want fast, this isn’t the drive for you.
Competitiveness
A little thicker than the 1 and 2tb versions, so it doesn't slide into a pocket as easily.
0 usb non-powered from 1tb up to 4tb.
I stayed with a 500gb model because my laptop will not need anything larger, it is a good fit for my needs.
This is leading me to do research on the reliability of this 5tb model.
