Review: Good Value, Well Made & Compact External Drive - Good value External Hard Drive. Seems to be working fine & is really useful for storing laptop and or PC backups.

No noticeable performance reduction compared to other more expensive major brands that I’ve previously used, so this item offers really good value.
