The Elements lineup is well-regarded. On Amazon, the drives have a four-and-a-half star rating on 3,500 reviews. The one thing to keep in mind is that if you plan to use this hard drive with a Mac, you'll probably want to reformat once you take it out of the box. By default, it's set up as an NTFS drive, which isn't the best fit for Macs.
