Excellent Value
Don’t compare this to the small cheap insect zappers on the same search
This is a very good quality item and it’s not small. Highly recommended, built to last product.

Good Reliable Drive
Good sized drive for the money, personally never had a problem with Seagate
One thing to note however with this and larger capacity drives, is that in this one for instance it had 6 platters (1TB per platter) therefore Seagate do not provide a middle screw hole as has always been the case with smaller drives.
It has screw holes in each corner and a lot of computer case HDD bays do not allow for this option so you end up retaining it in position by only 2 rear screws (not ideal considering the size)
Option is of course to get adaptors or a case that allows this.
Also there are various models of 6TB drive, so make sure that you're getting one with a high cache and not just a 64MB one.
Finally be aware that drives removed from USB cases will be the 'Archive' type and not intended for high usage in a PC.

So Good I got Another
1 of 1 found this helpful I needed a replacement for my old 750w PSU and decided to go up to the 850w to enable me to install more hard drives within the computer case as I'd run out of spare USB 3.0 availability.
As the ACE still comes with a Molex plug I could use a splitter to run not only those 2 drives but still had spare SATA plugs for 2 BR/DVD drives as well as the 3 original HDD's.
The old 750w became too noisy and would never have handled the load.
The ACE 850w PSU is priced just right, before you get in to silly money for, say a 1000w.
Highly recommended to anyone for an upgrade, or as I did build a second machine.
