This review is from: TOSHIBA 1TB Canvio Basics 3.0 Portable Hard Drive USB 3.0 Model HDTB110XK3BA Black
Pros:
No separate power adapter required.
Compact size.
Good cost per GB
Cons:
Not the fastest but they are connected to USB 2 ports.
Overall Review:
I purchased one a while back strictly for off computer backup. Worked fine. I was considering purchasing a second one for some additional storage rather than replacing the internal hard drive. I read a review on 3/9/13 which indicated problems with the sleep function of the drive and Linux. I tested my drive on my CentOS 6 desktop and Ubuntu 12.04 netbook. NO problems. The drive will sleep after its timeout or on a suspend. It wakes when I attempt to access it. No errors.
I purchased a second drive and have had it connected to my CentOS 6 desktop for several days. It has gone into sleep mode under a number of scenarios and has woken with no errors.
