I had quite bad experience few years ago with SMR (google Shingle Magnetic Recording) drives before, mostly, SeagateSymptoms: once you copy certain amount of small files, filling up cache or PMR area (regular HDD recording, opposite to SMR), drive becomes painfully slow and non responding. So, only solution was, to wait until drive is able to re-distribute small files. And wait for 15-20 minutes after that, when drive is supposedly idle, while recovering PMR - you can sense heads positioning. So any lengthy backup had to be done in small ~20 min steps, like this. SMR issue was not manifested for large files (videos etc), since area overlapping in these cases is minimalI've ordered 5Gb drive with my pain in my heart, since some review suggest the same situationWell, I copied ~3Tb of my photo collection. Where some 10-20Mb RAW photos and 1-4Mb processed jpegs. This process took around 8-10 hours without getting to SMR stall. Drive was writing at around 70-90Mb/s, consistently. Not getting overly hot (~44C), which is ok for that many plates and continuous loadDoes it mean SMR not here? Unlikely, there is no much progress in areal density packing, so not possible write 5Gb on "tall" 2.5 in disk conventional (PMR) way. What most likely is, SMR caching became more mature, RAM buffers, algorithms, etc allow to hide SMR ugliness. SMR might show it's face when writing even smaller files (source code ?) or some syntetic random tests. But I have to admit, it is suitable just fine for home user to store photos or smaller (1Mb) documents.If you plan to use it for an offline backup - go for it.

It's a good speaker and you have to expect not much bass due to it's size. We used it on the beach and it's not bad. Not a high end speaker by any means, but does the job.

It's actually pretty good if you come in with no expectation but wished there was more action. If they have a sequel in the future it might help with the storyline since it felt incomplete to me.

I like it's Price. I dislike the brightness, and blurry edges when adjusting the keystone.

Not bad at all for the price. All worked fine. Appear to be authentic SanDisk, too. I like the embedded small blue LED indicator light that is beneath the thumb slide. It actually "breathes" while the drive is plugged in letting you know it is working. Not too bright, either. Very light-weight, so it easily fit on my key chain without weighing it down. Not sure how sturdy these are, though. If you are looking for something more indistructible, look elsewhere. But for my needs, these are fine. And I like the included encryption program on each of these that makes it simple to store sensitive files.Only two lanyards are included with these, though. Would have been nice to include five, but I probably wouldn't use most of them, anyhow.

This was purchased for me for my birthday 2021.PROS: Very sturdy. The legs are adjustable span to fit in cluttered areas. Holds a device very securely. The remote functions and stays connected well.CONS: Feet cracked and fell off less than a year's time. Remote control won't stay in the "holder" which is made of rubber. The mounting head cannot swivel, the entire unit must be turned.I would say it does its intended job, but would not recommend it for active people who move locations frequently.

This item is good for the price! Picture quality is really good along with the brightness. But the remote and overall functionality is lacking. Would have liked to be able to use my phone with it but remember you get what you pay for. That's the only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5.

This is a pretty remarkable camera for the money. The setup was a bit fiddly and the manual might as well be in Swahili, but once it's going there isn't much to complain about. The motion detection is very sensitive, too much so, but it is adjustable. The night vision is remarkable.The app isn't bad, but it's got an issue when you launch it. Often you have to close it completely and start over. I haven't figured that out yet. Might just be my phone. Seems to work better on the tablet.Anyway, for thirty bucks and change, pretty amazing. Lots of cool features i wasn't expecting.
