Unboxing, Benchmarking and Review of Verbatim USB 3.0 Superspeed 2Tb Desktop harddrive, which I bought from Amazon for £72

0:01 Intro
1:55 Unboxing
3:33 Testing in Ubuntu
4:00 Pre-Installed Software
5:24 Benchmark Results
6:32 Real Life Results

Conclusion:
Im reasonably happy with the drive, Read/Write speeds are consistently high.
There are a couple of disadvantages: USB 3 and Power cables are too short, and Eco power down kicks in far too soon resulting in a long delay while drive spins back up.
