A good hard drive but it needs a Euro 2 Pin to 3 Pin Converter Plug
I bought this hard drive because I needed more storage capacity for my pictures than I had on my 2TB MyBook external drive and I have had good experiences with Transcend Compact Flash and SD cards. I have not had it long enough to judge its long term reliability but it seems to be working very well. My only grumble about it is that it came with a two pin plug, so any one purchasing one of these drives needs to have a two pin adapter or better still a Euro 2 Pin to 3 Pin Converter Plug. If it had been supplied with a 3 pin plug or adapter I would have given it 5 stars.A big gripe that I have is when manufactures call hard drives enormous when if they are used for storage they are usually not. Nowadays 3TB and 4TB external drives should be regarded as a standard size as with the increasing mega pixel size of cameras hard drives are filling up at a faster rate than ever before.

Became corrupt within 24hrs. Avoid
Thoroughly dissapointed. After purchasing I filled it up with 2tb of data on a Windows 10 Pro machine. I came back to the drive the following morning and the drive was corrupt.It wouldn't spin up, it wouldn't assign a drive letter and just made a noisy whirring sound. I contacted the seller and they were no help. I contacted transcend and tgey too were no help.Luckily I am experienced and managed to repair the drive as the boot partition was corrupt. I advise to steer well clear of this.

Good hard drive
Been using this hard drive for some time now and it has been an excellent bit of kit. Not noisy like some suggest and quite quick. I use it for storage and time machine and it does the job well.

Great hard drive for a Mac
Really pleased with this drive I bought it for my son to keep a copy of all his work on he now has 3 hard drives and this one is a back up copy. It copies over at a decent rate even on a usb 2 port. He has not had any problems with it and has filled a quarter of the drive. He is a film student and needs to ensure his work is safe. I bought it to work with a Mac and it does work well. Really happy with it!
