Strengths:
A single USB cable - included - provides power and transfer the video stream.
Data transfer via the USB cable is no problem, whatever the use.
No vibration, no noise, perfect design, very light.
Weakness:
You must use the software provided on DVD to use the hardware, so if you want to use the external drive to replace a failed internal drive that is complicated ... I did not go searching on the internet, but perhaps a solution + power of DVD software installation can be done WITHOUT through reading the supplied DVD?
I would have preferred, for safety reasons and on principle, recognized automatically by the operating system (which was not the case in Seven 64)
Conclusion: this is still a great product. Bought less than 100 at Amazon with an express delivery as usual (well done to the whole team!)
