Title: Horrible product
Review: I purchased this drive primarily to make portable the many projects and presentations that I collaborated with others students on in grad school. So I needed a reliable drive, which the reviews indicated this one was. It worked fairly well for a few months, but then the transfer speeds began slowing down more and more, and the amount of failed transfers began to increase. In the end, after less than one year of use, it stopped working all together. It would begin transferring files, but then fail at about 15-20 percent...every time. There were many times where it indicated that transfer was successful only to fail when I went to read the files on a different PC.It's also worth mentioning that even when this drive worked, it never achieved the advertised transfer speeds (all PCs used ran Windows 7). The best write speed I ever got was about 10-12 MB/sec, which is pathetic. And reads weren't much better.I do not recommend this product, especially if your data is critical.
Is the review positive or negative?
