Review: This is now my 4th Freecom Tough Drive. I have stuck with them for years now as they are self-powered, have the cable built in and are very resistant to drops, being thrown about, being shoved in bags etc. Should something go wrong with it, as happened to one of mine when I confused the hell out of it by installing all sorts of partitions all over the place, Freecom customer service replaced it for free in an efficient and timely manner. Now for the useful information the speed tests! TEST PROGRAM: Blackmagic Disk Speed Test (5GB Stress Read/Write averaged over 5 minutes of testing) MACHINE: 15" 2.7GHz Quad-Core i7 Retina Macbook Pro /w 16GB RAM at 1600MHz and 2x USB 3.0 Ports (56151) Freecom USB 2.0 Tough Drive 1TB: Read 23.2 Mbps / Write 21.4 Mbps (Old Model) (56057) Freecom USB 3.0 Tough Drive 1TB: Read 71.1 Mbps / Write 60.0 Mbps (New Model) As you can see the USB 3.0 Drive performs roughly 3x better than the older USB 2.0 model. Aesthetically I find the USB 3.0 version more appealing as instead of the logo on the drive and garish flashing blue LED inside the USB cable the rubberised case itself is smooth and unbranded and the bright LED has been replaced with a softer white glowing light akin in the sleep indicators on the older generation of MacBook Pro's. All in all for the difference in price I would thoroughly recommend the USB 3.0 version of this drive compared to the older one as it is not only nicer to look at but also faster and even if you don't have a USB 3.0 enabled computer now you can see it as future-proofing yourself against feeling the need to upgrade to a faster model when it comes time to upgrade computers. N.B. Please note that if your computer does not have USB 3.0 ports this HDD will be no faster than the previous model.

Review: Really, really good portable HDD. I have deployed all over the world with the military and have gone through more HDDs than you can shake a stick at because they've either overheated or just broken. This bad boy has been through 3 tours of Afghanistan, been dropped countless times, yet still keeps spinning. Absolutely great. I would give it 5 stars if it wasn't for the exceptionally short USB 3.0 cable attachment (which is so small it's actually pointless). Bought with a 2m USB 3.0 extender cable and it works fine. Highly recommend if you're like me and do a lot of travelling. Great product.
