1 out of 5 eggsSTAY AWAY FROM HITACHI DRIVES

Pros: Second replacement, now fighting to have the third drive because they sent me a 500 GB instead of 1 TB. They said that no records on system that proved that I bought 1TB. I sent emails, proof of purchase and nothing. Now they say that they are investigating why they change to 500 GB ????? Meantime I have to wait. Don't buy this JUNK at any price!!!

Cons: Their system is bad as their drives

1 out of 5 eggsA Piece of Crp!

Pros: None

Cons: I never got the chance to use it. It died quickly. All it does is click. I did not use for a while and let the warranty expire. Put small amount of data on it when I first got it and did not use it because I bought another larger HD I was using. Then tried to use it and found it was a piece of crp. Basically it has never worked. It was clicking the second time I used it.
