Toshiba external hard drive is much faster then others. It works well with my MacBook Pro. Data transferring is fast when I connect it to my macbook pro. Hard drive price and performance is good as compare to others drive. I have always connected it to my macbook pro so can not say it will work with other systems also but for me its working well. I had choosen this product because I can not spend more money for external drive. But after using some time I found its value for money. People can buy this good product with good price.
