    Works well when mounted. When my Mac goes to sleep, WD - easytore eithers 1) won't mount automatically 2) mounted but folders are empty. I have to restart the Mac to fix the issue. - I tried reformatting the drive APFS and MacOS Extended (Journaled) formats - I installed the latest version of the WD apps - I read articles about similar issues I had to return the product as I ran out options for troubleshooting.

    Makes a lot of noise and sounds like it's "thrashing". I hope it doesn't go out on me.

    The drive works well, with decent transfer speeds. I was pleased to discover that it has a rotation speed of 7200 RPM. I didn’t use the included WD software so cannot comment on it. I haven’t owned the drive long enough to gauge its reliability.

    Received November 5th 2020, died 3/28/22. Drive no longer found using Western Digital tools (Dashboard and Data Lifeguard Diagnostics). Tried drive on multiple computers and it's not found. I hear warranty takes months to replace, hoping for a quick warranty.

    Very slow drive, however it does work as intended. Just really surprised with how dang slow this thing is. Feels more like 3000 RPM's.
