solid if slow USB drive... compact size means its not terribly rugged, but it's a great in-house only backup solution because of that small physical footprint. Geek Squad gave me one of these for screwing up one of my computers. By the way, don't trust geek squad with a music machine unless you speak with the manager or an actual technician. The guys at the counter claim they're techs but they're just salespeople. They'll say anything they need to in order to get your money. Everyone lsot on that deal... I lost data I hadn't backed up yet because I was too lazy to do my own tech work. Best buy lsot profit on a drive and refunded all my labor costs. No one got anything out of that. Hats off to the manager of geek squad who was not above taking a hit to satisfy a customer who was straight up lied to by the front desk personnel. But eyah, this drive's not abd for a cheap consumer type of backup... gives me added epace of mind having a drive I regularly mirror my internal drives to so more than my big project files are backed up.
really great if its free.
