Comments about Buffalo 2TB DriveStation Axis USB 3.0 External Hard Drive HD-LBU3:
The drive came formatted with NTFS so I had to reformat it for use with my Mac.
I copied over 600GB to the drive and it copied very quickly and is extremely quiet. Even after hours of writing, the drive case remained relatively cool.
