Many appreciate the ample storage capacity for their files and the straightforward installation process. While some users experienced issues with the included software and warranty duration, the positive feedback on performance and value significantly outweighs these concerns.

Where is the manual/other hardware/software?
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a typical solid-state hard drive. Nowadays the price has gone down, and for the size of 500 gigabytes, it is quite affordable. My very first SSD drive was a 64GB, and it was a few years ago, and I think it may have cost over $200 or so? The problem is there was no manual enclosed in the package at all. There was one sheet of warranty information in different languages – but nothing at all even any information about their website to log on for more information or to download any program to clone a copy from the original if that is the case. Even on the back of the box doesn't have any website address or anything. Anyone with little knowledge of how to disassemble and assemble a computer will not be able to put this to use without help. The specifications are similar to other brands and it wasn't difficult to connect as a primary drive or a secondary drive. I tried both and it worked fine. I ended up using it as a secondary drive and I put temporary folders there. (My primary drive is also a solid-state drive but it is one terabyte.) The computer booted up fast enough (much faster than a hard drive) running Windows 10 64-bit. The speed is supposed to be 545MB per second read and 525MB per second writer. So no cable, manual, or any hardware nor instructions were provided. You would have to go to the Western Digital website to look for one yourself if you want to buy this particular model. There is a three-year warranty on this drive and if you only have to have one hard drive on a new computer or to replace one on your desktop or even your laptop, it will work fine but you just have to know what you're doing. So here is the datasheet http://products.wdc.com/library/SpecSheet/ENG/2879-800079.pdf and manual http://products.wdc.com/library/UM/ENG/4779-705161.pdf And here is the location to download the utilities (one is the True Image program to clone a drive) https://support.wdc.com/product.aspx?ID=1800&lang=en#WD_downloads Recommended ONLY if you know what you're doing. Remember, no other hardware included.
