Pros: these are extremely fast drives
Cons: unfortunately after about 2 weeks the drives failed 1 is inoperable and the other , although it can be seen by windows , is read only status and everything i tried to get it to work has failed. I am going to see if i can rma for refund.
Overall Review: I don't know if it was a fluke or chance that i got a bad batch but I think you may want to weigh your decision on these drives carefully.
