The hard drive is fast (110MB / s read and write) for a 2,5zoll hard drive, virtually silent and what I particularly think that is indicated by LED, if the HDD in USB 2.0 or 3.0 mode runs: it lights up white, it runs only in 2.0 mode and file transfers are considerably slower. It lights up blue, she runs 3.0 Mode in USB. No idea if the drinsteht in the guide or not, I have my unfortunately deleted (it is, according to the note was in the package on the hard disk as a file). Not everyone seems to be aware, as anyone here, he wrote, for example, would be happy to know that finally white LEDs are installed in electronic devices. If the LED is white in my hard drive instead of blue lights I'm more not pleased. Works as it should, however, the USB 3.0 port is also really getting USB 3.0 speed available. If that's in someone's not always the case, I'd bet more on a software problem, I have, for example, to a USB 3.0 port only USB 2.0, for whatever reason. Had nothing new when lying on driver / Windows.
Unfortunately, the cable is very short, which is why I forgive only 4 stars. The question is whether one can expect a longer cable for the price.
Let's see how long hold out the hard drive. When first bad sectors show up or if there is even a total failure.
Incidentally, you can read SMART data with the usual programs, everything from temperature to uptime, bad sectors etc. Of particular importance when one is fond of the data.
