  1. Jonathan S.

    Pros: > Great design. USB 3.0 connectors are very solidly built. I had problems with competitive drives and pins breaking. This drive has very solid connectors. Difficult to accidentally break pins. > Comes with both a long (2ft) and short (4″) USB 3.0 cables. I use the long cable more often than not. Cons: > Wish it had a rubberized case. > Cannot think of reason why 4″ cable would be useful to people. Overall Review: I do not understand why people are worried about the particular 3.0 cable…

    Pros: Bought two of these (2TB version) through another account. Both are working fine with the exception of one cable (more on that later). The enclosure has excellent construction, and it is very easy to break down if I have to replace the drive in the future. The inner rubber lining (orange bit on the black version) is more like a cage that continues underneath the plastic cover, and there are foam spacers between the cover and the hard drive as part of the suspension. With USB 3.0,…

  3. Nick O.

    Pros: Very rugged, this hdd survived my 2 deployments to the middle east, including falling down a flight of metal stairs. After over a year it still works everytime I plug it in. Not the fastest hard drive in the world, but great for travelling. Very solid construction, had no problem in very dirty/dusty environments. Cons: Again, not super fast. Also emits a high pitch noise when plugged in (pretty sure this is the hard drive writing etc) Overall Review: This is a great hard drive for…

  4. Marcel D.

    Pros: The A60 has a great read/write speed since it uses the latest USB 3.0 interface. It is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. I tested an older USB 2.0 drive and found the A60 to be about five times faster. It thus saved me precious time backing up to and from the hard drive when transferring mass data files. It has a hot plug and play functionality. This means that it connects to just about any USB slot on your computer and is ready to go immediately. When in use, there is a blue LED…

  5. Anonymous

    Pros: I was really surprised when I plugged this in initially. I primarily use Mint 17.1 so I benchmarked this after creating an ext4 partition. This drive maintained 105Mb read and 109Mb write using a 500Mb file. I then encrypted the drive with LUKS Encryption ext4 and it slowed but still maintained 88Mb write and 92Mb read. I tested it on both an i7 3770 and an i5 3210 Laptop with same results (Ivy Bridge). It took less than a few seconds to write a 1.9Gb 4k video file. If it is as durable…

  6. Stefanie L.

    Pros: It does what it claims to do and does it well: High speed USB 3.0 and protection from the elements ( cat jumping on desk and knocking it over, power surges, etc etc , stuff happens.) What more could you ask? Even the design is pretty stylish to top it. Cons: Like other reviewers have said, USB cable is short, but this is barely a con, just aesthetic and flexibility Overall Review: I’ve had mine for over a year now and it’s done everything a good hard drive should do without making me…

    Pros: The blue shell you see in the photos is billet aluminum carved into a one-piece shell, sand-blasted, and anodized. Very nice texture to it and since it’s sand-blasted instead of brushed it won’t show oily fingerprint stains. Wipe it clean every now and then and it’ll always look as good as the day you got it. Opening it reveals how almost perfect the water-resistant seal is with one exception I’ll go over in the cons. The seal goes all the way around the interior housing on both sides…

  8. Michael C.

    Pros: The Drive is fairly cheap. The price is about the same to buy an internal 1TB drive but this one is significantly more durable. I tested the speeds by copying over 10GB of Anime and it copied at a solid 72MB/s. (Test was from Samsung 850 PRO SSD) There is an indicator light inside of the case that shines through that indicates the drives activity. The light is RED for USB 2.0 and BLUE for USB 3.0. Biggest Pro: NO PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE The drive did come with a little bit of software…
