Mechanical hard drives are extremely similar so it’s hard to separate out one brand from another beyond specs. The drive works and is as fast as others with the same specs. The pricing is great and is consistent with other 1 TB hard drives.
What I like about this drive is the three year warranty. I hope to never use it but with laptop drive failure too common and warranties usually in the 1-2 year range, this drive matches the “gold” standard of drive warranties.
The retail box was a waste. It had a tiny manual and no software. Typically I’ve found that retail boxes include transfer software.
NOTE: this is an AF (advanced format) drive which requires later versions of Windows 7 or Mac operating system 10.4 and up or else you need to install special software. It’s not compatible with XP out of the box and it may not be compatible with older devices that use SATA drives.
