I have in my possession the SEAGATE GO 1000 material for more than one year, it serves as my platform for video downloading and pps, say in segond role, good internal or external hard disk externally best it heats less. I had the internally I have had after six months missed a few uses, erased data. I installed the SSD in primary, since the computer lags at all and no data has disappeared (recorded data on Seagate) perfect storage area outside as any internal or external few mechanical drive is the mark; long live the SSD.
