If you want to add extra capacity to your PC and like this device's novel look, the My Book will do the job.
Compared to other external hard drives on the market, it is relatively inexpensive at around $100. Luckily I got a raw deal for Rs 4800 from eBay. This drive connects to a system though a USB 2.0 port. Given its comparatively inexpensive price, this hard drive has great features for the cash. And on top of it, it offers a 3 year warranty.
Pros: Sleek, Looks Great, Fast
Cons: Pre-Formatted in FAT32, just Convert to NTFS for Faster file transfer. Google how if you don't know how.
The drive’s glossy black exterior makes it look amazingly sleek, unfortunately it also makes it a dust and fingerprint magnet. As for its eco-tilt you’ll find that the drive shuts off when you shut your PC off or unplug it saving that bit of electricity and while your computer is in use. It also has an auto-spin down function where it turns off the drive completely if there’s no activity to it after a 10 minute period. It certainly will save you a bit of power but the lag time between trying to access the drive and it spinning up and being usable is a little test of patience.
Overall it is a great looking device and it does exactly what you need it to do: store your files. It might not sport the fastest connections out there but it’s easy to add storage and once you’re done storing and retrieving files from it it’ll quietly turn itself off to save you a bit of power. Enough storage space to store my life :D Talk about GBs, here is something in a TB.
Highly RECOMMENDED.
