Bought to replace another external drive Seagate Expansion of dubious operation after 3 years. This is immediately recognized by the PC and the Maxtor backup software. Neither hot nor noisy than the old model with a rounded facade. I can hardly judge its performance, my PC is old (Windows XP and USB2). The only complaint at the moment is the position of the light placed on top of the bonnet just behind. On the old witness was logically placed on the front facade
