    Was not able to install this hard drive to my computer. I'm not sure if the issue was my computer, or the hard drive. I ended up taking it back to the store.

    From 5/2021, to 1/2022, this drive began to fail. I had to get a replacement. I could not access this in any capacity, but fortunately the Sabrent dock's cloning feature worked to copy this drive into a Seagate drive. Seagate over Western Digital. I'm not sure if I'll ever trust WD again. They used to be so reliable...

    When storing video keepsakes try the WD - Mainstream 2TB Internal Serial ATA Hard Drive for Desktops

    Necessary Component for DIY PC or Upgrade

    WD does it again! HDD size and speed at a decent price. Never had issues with past products from this manufacturer and excellent support on-line. Basic install, if brackets or screws needed - should be with mobo. Making BYO pc easy when parts are affordable to the knowledgeable. Always recommend Western Digital!

    Drive failed almost immediately. I had tossed all the packing, so I had to go through WD warranty support, who was kind enough to make me pay for shipping back to them. I haven't trusted the replacement refurbished drive enough to do anything with it yet, after the first one failed out of the box.

    This drive worked well for a little over two months. Then today I plugged it in to do my backup as I always do. It immediately deleted both partitions on the drive and subsequently would not repartition due to bad sectors. WD used to stand for quality, now they're going the way of Seagate and leaving us with no easily available options!
