I dont do a lot of gaming but when I do I like something that moves where I want it to. Keep my feet warm even when temps are low. Very comfortable and great support (helps my plantar fasciitis) . After wearing them, a few times, I was wondering why one felt much more snug than the other. Ive never had problems with build like this with any other brands and they were definitely built better before Logitech took them over. Ive contact Logitech and I havent been reached to yet. It is still awfully big. On top of that, it came missing the bottom friction pads listed as included. I chose this Pro drive over the straight Seagate 500GB Barracuda because the Pro spins at 7200 vs 5400 rpm of the non-Pro and is therefore slightly quicker, 160MB/s vs 140MB/s, but even more important is the 5yrs for the Pro vs 2yrs warranty for the non-Pro. For my granddaughter to wear when she visits.
