I bought this drive there a few months now. Having lost my previous two (one being dropped and the other having seen the wrong adapter connected ...), I thought it was time I buy a hard drive a little more robust. So I bought this little model, which fits easily in the pocket (what I often do matter!). At the design level, nothing to say: it is sober, elegant. However, a little too bright LED flashes continuously when the drive is connected to the computer. Anyway, nothing serious. In operation the disc also emits slight vibrations, but sound may not be felt if, for example, the disk is placed on a wooden table. Otherwise it is completely silent. Like all 1TB hard drives, it has only a real capacity to 931 GB, which is absolutely not annoying saw the proposed size. Level transfer rate, I have not had the opportunity to test the compatibility 3.0 with no USB port of this type. However, in 2.0, we get very good results: in ideal conditions (no programs running in the background on your PC, for example), speed is reached 45-50 MB / s, which is great. I was able to connect the drive and play videos on my box SFR, so compatibility level is nickel. The disc presents programs for the transfer I have ever used, maybe they will be useful to beginners. In summary a great product, within 100 moreover, I recommend you then.
Update: after testing the hard drive interface on a 3.0, I notice, as said in previous reviews, the flow rate is quite low (70 M / s). But this is good enough.
