yeah, it just matters the drive inside the enclosure as far as the price goes. Cheap, slow drives since its USB or ethernet connecting them on a consumer scale, half the PCs are still 10/100 or usb2.0, or in their home wifi network doing little more than moving one file at a time. For whatever reason, most of the USB drives Ive opened have seagate laptop drives in them, Ive never been a seagate fan because they used to have such a high failure rate. Probably doesnt matter though since theyre probably all being made in the same factory by only the finest 12 year old taiwaneese craftsman
