Overall Review:

I've gotten 2 duds in a row. Long story short, they seemed to install ok (1st one was quirky, but eventually installed, 2nd installed fine right away) but then when I tried to copy files onto the drive, it would hang after several GB. I ran the included Samsung Drive Manager diagnostics - the complete option - and the ending message returned was that the drive was defective and I should have it replaced. 2 defective drives in a row makes me very wary plus RMA return shipping for 2 drives isn't cheap!
