One of the reason I
wanted a hard drive was for extra space to store files from my laptop because I
am running out of space because of my big music collection. I was looking for
something with a decent amount of space and affordable price and came across
the Toshiba portable 500gb hard drive. I have heard and read some good reviews
about this, so I thought why not choose this, plus my laptop is Toshiba brand.
Pros:
Price: The price was
great, it was within my budget, which was even better.
Functionality: Once
it was hooked up to my laptop, it read within seconds, which was greats. I
tested it out and transferred some files to(pdfs, and some music files) and
copied in a few seconds. Then I tried some of my bigger files like my
downloaded movies. Because these are bigger sized files, it took some time but
not too long only like a couple of minutes.
Build: It is very
light weight, so be very careful while carrying it. I would suggest a investing
in a case to protect it. It has 4 pads under the bottom, which prevent it from
moving a lot.
Other: The cable
that comes with is great because it is one of those thick and durable cables,
that I like so much and feels that it would last for a long time.
Cons:
Build: I really
dislike the build of this hard drive because of its plastic feel, it feels like
it will break on me or become loose. Like above, I would strongly suggest
investing in a case.
Overall, I have
owned this device since February and so far it has been holding up very
great!!!
