Ok, so it is another hard drive. What is to review? How about interchangeable interface, USB 3.0 speeds and drive size. Read on to see how it performed.
I did not need another drive but I found a great deal at Newegg and could not pass this beauty up.
It looks pretty even with the protective plastic still on.
1.5 TB Drive Size
Does this case make me look fat? No, your platters make you look fat. It is about 22mm (.87 in) actually, as you can see compared to my USB 3.0 500GB Toshiba drive.
GoFlex Cable Upgrades
The cable connector removes easily so you can change the interface. You can purchase different cable upgrades for between $14.99 and $24.99.

The drive is 1.36 TB after tax. Yummy.

The results are in and not too bad. Heck, my USB 3.0 500GB 5,400 Toshiba gets 70 Read and Write.

Conclusion
This drive performs great and is still small enough to carry around in your pocket. If you can pick one up for under $120 then I believe it is worth it for this wallet sized beauty. 1.5TB. Seriously.
