Good, but not the same?
I have two of these. They are a bargain, but.. . I like NEVER having to worry about space available. I have had good luck with Western Digital drives. Seagate drives, by comparison, are much less reliable. This new purchase behaves differently than the apparently identical drive I already have. The new one is much noisier. It also takes much longer to ‘wake up’ and respond. It seems to go inactive more, though supposedly this is controlled by the computer. Different hardware inside the plastic housing? Seems likely. Well, 4 stars seems about right for this,

Great drive for the money. Only WD Drives for me.
Pretty good value for what I paid for it. Refuse to buy anything but WD external drives anymore. Have 6 or 7 total. Haven’t had any issues with WD but Seagates have failed. The WD My Book drives seem rather rugged, solid and well built.

Storage for Days
Lots of storage for things you need to save from your PC. The only little annoyance from this is the power brick. (But makes sense since it’s a lot of storage)
