Mine is a 3 yr. old Acer SSD, hasn't failed me yet, but I have a recent HP 500GB external HD that's still sealed in the little box since I haven't done anything with it yet (Lazy Procrastinator First-Class here).

I want to back up my entire computer on it but I thought that would take hours and hours so I haven't gotten around to doing it yet. I know, I know, Famous Last Words lol
