I have seen burst reads and writes of 500 MB/sec and sustained reads and writes of 90 MB/sec. This thing is blazing fast for an external hard drive. ![]() There is a very clear difference in speeds between USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports. You just plug it into the USB port and you're ready to go. To start, the drive requires no external power source. I own 6 different external drives and this one blows them all away. ![]() Pros: I just want to start by saying that this drive the by far the best external hard drive ever conceived. If you have the need for a longer cable consider a USB extension cable and make sure it is USB 3.0 compatible. The other thing that you may want to consider is the length of the cable which is around 1 foot. Overall Review: The enclosure is a bit wider than most 2.5" Drives that I have worked with. I tested the transfer of many smaller files and larger backups files and in both situations the drive performed as expected.Īside from very light, it is very portable and fits almost everywhere including pockets. The drive is a top notch performer in both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 connections. ![]() Also including server 2008, 2012 and Ubuntu. ![]() Pros: I have tested this portable drive in a variety of Operating Systems ranging from Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 8.1.
