Does what it is supposed to
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent drive. Replaced a 10 year old WD hard drive that still works. Added this and it put some new life into a 10 yr old Dell i7 desktop. Almost like a new computer. My 10 year old machine still does all I need it to.

WD Blue Hard Drive and computer battery
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can't begin to express how impressed I am with Best Buy and The Geek Squad. I was having a battery problem with my computer so I made an appointment with the Geek Squad. They were able to determine that although I kept current with the updates I really needed to purchase a new battery and update my hard drive. They provided the website so I could order the battery and brought me a hard drive from the store. They installed the battery and the new hard drive and upgraded everything. When I picked it up they walked me through everything to make sure I was comfortable with the new battery and hard drive.

Great Drive, Buggy Software.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took a little configuring to get my computer to recognize it. I am disappointed with the software. I tried several times to copy my current D drive and after an hour each time, nothing! Drive works great, just really wished I could have gotten everything transferred from my current hard drive.

Nice SSD!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a nice, affordable upgrade option to older tech that needs an upgrade. I'm sure it can be used in newer machines that still have standard hard drives. This helped save an older laptop from being retired.

Good SSD

Purchased this drive on sale for less than comparable options from competitors. The only issue was trying to use wd's cloning software. Used macrium reflect instead and all is well.

Easy hook up
