    Gets the job done. As fast as a mechanical HDD is expected to perform via USB 3.0 and very reliable. Used to store loads of contents (Steam games and such) and never any issues/errors.

    It is a lot of storage for a good price especially when on sale. I use it for Time Machine backups and media storage. The only reason I gave it only 4 stars is the USB 3.0 interface. There are newer and faster interfaces that make copying to and from the drive faster.

    The 1st WD Drive that I ordered was lost in transit and Best Buy graciously sent a second one, which I received. The Drive is smooth and efficient. It is a very good drive that is easy to use!

    Great for storage and when not in use, it powers down. I do a lot of video work and needed to keep things on a budget and this was the perfect balance of storage space and needing to stay within my budget.
