> 24 hourThis one came with a very nice bag to carry it in. To test it, I used a desktop computer and plugged it into a USB 3 port. The sequential read and write speeds about what I would expect from a mechanical hard disk. The random read speeds were oddly low and lower than the random write speeds. I tested this three times and on the third time, I reformatted the drive with the default for Windows instead of the original exFAT. but the results were fairly consistent with all three tests. I intend to use this as a backup drive.

> 24 hourThis is a good external drive for archival, storage of documents, pictures and the like - its compact, doesnt require external power, has a LOT of space and comes with a nice small USB cable and a carrying bag. Its not slow FOR A MECHANICAL DRIVE - but its still a mechanical drive, and not a solid state/SSD/flash drive, so dont expect those speeds. The ~125MB/s read/write that I got from it (see benchmark in picture) is a good result given what it is, and the well proven technology should make it durable. The outer case is plastic, but it seems to be well made, without sharp corners and since the drive inside doesnt generate a lot of heat, it should be just fine. I will note, because this is a mechanical (i.e., spinning) drive, you shouldnt move it much or jostle it when in use. When not in use, its reasonably durable though still less than an SSD but at a much lower cost. And thats ultimately what this comes down to - if you need inexpensive, high volume external storage and the use case doesnt need to be high speed (archival, documents, etc.) then this is a great drive to pick up!

> 24 hourThis external drive is reasonably fast for a 5400 RPM platter drive. The hard drive itself is made by HGST, a subsidiary of Western Digital, and Ive had very good success with HGST drives in the past. The price seems to be reasonable as well for a 1TB external drive. It came in a no frills package with only a short (17 total) USB Type A cable, so if you want to connect it to a Type C port, you will need an adapter. Typical of external drives like this, the case is glued together so it cannot be disassembled to remove or exchange the hard drive. Fit and finish is nice, and I havent had any issues so far.

> 24 hourIt’s a portable 5400rpm hard drive which is formatted to exFAT so it should be readable on most devices. I scanned for malware or any other hidden items and found none. I reformatted anyway and the drive has 931gb usable. Overall a good portable backup option. Keep in mind this is a 5400 rpm drive and nowhere near as quick on read and write as an SSD.

> 24 hourI got this to expand the storage of my Xbox One, and Ive had no issues with it. The drive set up without any hiccups, and Ive had no problems playing games stored on it; I havent noticed any extra loading times. This drive has been an easy upgrade to my old Xbox One.

> 24 hourThis drive met my expectations. Its in a nice case, comes with the USB cable, and gets good speeds for a spinning disk. Always remember to be careful with it while transporting, and avoid moving it while its running if at all possible. Im using this as a backup drive, where I just pull it out about once a quarter and sync my data to it, then unplug it and put it back in storage. This works great for my purposes, and if you have similar requirements I think this is a good choice.

> 24 hourWell, its not an SSD but it is 1TB of space and inside in the box contains a spinning HGST HT6641010B7E610 drive. Its not the fastest drive out there my any means, but its great for a backup of your main computer or add-on to a PS4 or X-Box. So far no issues with using this drive to backup my main laptop and the cable is comes with is a USB-A 3.0 and has a nice felt caring storage pouch.
