Quality


Very pleased with how sturdy it is.


All i needed was a good device to store my stuff and put it away and it is sturdy and strong.


This g drive store all the files i will never open again


Every drive i researched had customer comments talking about how the drive failed, including this one.

Price


Worth a few dollars more for the convenience.

Competitiveness


Tried to buy many different brand before, and this one is the fastest ever.


Further, i had one or two iomega backup drives fail on me (that brand no longer exists).


For the money it’s not as good of a deal compared to the seagate expansion drives.
