Pros & Cons
Pros
Very compact, silent and fast. Only complaint is that there is a slight separation between the two halves of the case.
This is the best storage ssd drive i’ve ever had. Offers a very capable backup as well as a daily drive. Sata, pci, ps4 and hfs.
It’s everything they say and even that may be understated. I hope that someone new to the product will be able to ease their possible skepticism and purchase with confidence.
It is completely plug-and-play. Comes with two cables, a usb-c to usb-a, for newer laptops. It also comes with a convenient usb c cord to connect to newer laptops and pcs.
Cons
Speed is not as advertised. Especially, just after 1-2 gb transfer, speed decreases drastically. Its even slower than usb 2. It is slow as it fills up.
Disk eventually failed. Not to mention there was a sketchy exe when it was initially plugged in. For example, playing a game for an hour or two is enough for the drive to stop responding until it is unplugged and plugged back in.
Material quality is not good. It is plasticy. The plastic casing is cheap. The ssd is cheap feeling.

These are also of very good quality and fits snuggly into the corresponding ports in the drive as well as the computer.
This one is hard quality and it is nice (even nice to look at).
It takes few minutes to copy and paste 35gb in the process.
Price
I bought the 2tb pro version for $80 and this thing is a crazy good deal.
Nice cost-effective solution for backing up valuable data.
I'm using this for non-critical, routine backup of video and music files, the 2tb version was less than 90 bucks wow.
For 1tb of storage at $59 - the price seemed very reasonable.
Shipping
Shipping was extremely fast and the drive arrived in a couple of days to my address in covin.
Packaging/appearance
This was in turn packed in a cardboard box making the packaging attractive and safe.
The drive itself was packed in a clear plastic enclosure which contained the usb cables and the instructions manual.

Competitiveness
All in all i can say that this drive is of very good quality and can be considered akin to more expensive and well known brands... Read More
I have used other silicone power external drives, and so that helped me to make a decision to purchase this one.
I bought a few more of these for other windows servers and workstations too.
It's slim and sleek (photo comparison to my google pixel 6 phone).

As always with hard drives its difficult to gauge their reliability in the short term as you have to use them for a few years before you can really judge how well they hold up over time
