This drive was bought for my camera. I have 4 of them, I swap them out after I take about 15 pictures of each place I visit, that way if I happen to lose one or have problems with one,, I haven't lost all the pictures I shot at one place we visit.

I bought the unit to store my Linux Distribution on it so if I need to access my data while traveling I can use any computer without any security problems... I had used a 16 GB USB 2.0 before but need more storage. P.S The price was good also.....
