By Liz R. ()
This drive works great. It has only been a month, but it runs very quietly and I've had no problems. Plus, it was mae in the US. I was glad to find such a good drive for such a good price.

By Brian ()
Wonderful product. Partitioned the drive to work as a time machine drive for 3 separate computers on my network. It was easy to set up and have not had a problem since I bought it 3 months ago. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.
