Fast drive, keep in mind it's a RAID0 so 2X as likely to fail as a single drive enclosure... but also twice as fast. Quiet, works well. 5

Built like a tank, very fast and reliable... my second one, which I bought as a back up to the first, which I've had for three years, and never had a problem... highly recommended! 5

I bought this Hard Drive because I needed a faster storage unit for video editing. I've been using compact drives for over a year to edit photos and video and it is just TOO SLOW. This RAID made a huge difference not only in upload speed so my programs run smoother, but also in reliability. It is very quiet and designed well. It comes with all the cables you need. I would say the only downside to this hard drive is the size and weight. It is of course an older model, but it's even twice the size of my external hard drives bought 3-4 years ago. I wish it didn't take so much desk space. And for the price, I wish it had more memory storage than 1TB. 5
