I cannot honestly rate this drive as I returned the item before using it. I assume it is as good as they have said it is. I just wanted to let you guys know that I had placed my order while the drive was available, in quantity, from a local Best Buy store. Sadly, my item wasn't pulled in a timely manner and after hours of waiting for a confirmation text, I called. Turns out stores are docked if they miss a pull. My item wasn't pulled and had the inventory manager been more concerned in not getting pinged for a missed pull than in satisfying my order, he could have passed it to along to a nearby store saving me the trouble of calling the main service number, twice. Long story short - I had to convince a customer service rep that I was telling the truth in this matter even though the time sequence of events in their system clearly showed my order was finally dropped while I was talking with the store's manager about it. Funny thing was, the inventory manager didn't tell me he was dropping my order - it was only after we ended the call that I got a text from BB telling me that that was the course of action he had just taken. Had he done anything sooner, another nearby store could have fulfilled my order. By the time this all happened, stock was gone. The customer service rep I talked with took more effort than should have needed to finally get my item shipped to meet the same standard had my item been dealt with in a timely manner. So, after receiving the drive - I returned it. I liked the drive and the price - just not the manner in which I had to jump through hoops in order to get it. If by some chance there is less than ten of an item at the time you order the item online it might be in your best interest, fellow shoppers, to check on that order within an hour of doing so or you might have the fun of writing about your experience as I just did. Good luck!
