Buffalo MiniStation 2.5 inch 1 TB External Hard Disk  (Black)

It was the first Buffalo product that I bought and I am happy about it now.

1) It worked out-of-the-box by directly inserting in the USB port. It comes formatted with NTFS for Windows.

2) Out of 2TB, it shows 1.81 TB as available space before copying my data, which is good.

3) Speed is good for USB 2.0. My desktop does not support USB 3 as its old configuration.

4) The indicator light is too bright and it helps my dad to find me that I am still awake in midnight. No more cheating him now :P

- Small, slim, handy.
- Absolutely no noise
- Great copying speeds(20-25M for a SATA to SATA transfer and 15-20M for a external(USB) to SATA transfer
- Great value for money.

Note: For all those who're confused whether WD would be better than this, I hope this helps.

- Almost the same size.
- Lesser noise.
- Same copying speeds
- LESSER price
