I have compared this Toshiba Canvio 2.5 inch 500 Gb wired External Hard drive with other companies and from my opinion this is the best at this price and I have purchased it in 2014 and I till used without any problems and at this price it gives lots of good features like very good speed for data transfer, no loose connection for USB cables and also the dust protective Hard Disk and mainly the Hard disk is comfortable and handy without noise it gives little bit of vibration because of the spinning otherwise this is the best product I also suggest my friends to purchase it and most of using it.
