    Works well with Win10. Did not work with Win98 at all when trying to back it up before getting rid of computer. Had to transfer to a different drive then copy onto this one. Otherwise ok.

    Small, light weight and robust. I love it. I had to buy an adaptor as my Mac only had USB-C ports. I bought to use with my Mac and it works fine. That needs extra explanation. It does not matter if a hard drive is "for Windows" or "for Mac". You can always erase it after you plug it in the computer and use your own computer's backup software. (Just an internet search away.) Or just manually copy the files you want to back up to the hard drive.

    Easy to use storage to enjoy and retrieve saved documents without any problems. Having a fast PC is recommended. Otherwise, time is of the essence if in a rush.

    Great for storage. However, you must handle with care.. meaning no throwing around and allowing the disk to stop spinning when unplugging. Great device.

    I bought a new computer, monitor and was looking for something to help me transfer my files from the old to new computer, since Windows 10 doesn't have that feature. A Best Buy associate explained everything to me and even gave me instructions on how to do it. I purchased the WD easy store 1 TB external USB 3.0 external hard drive . I am so glad that I did! Not only did this drive allow me to transfer my files quickly and so easy, it now serves as my weekly back up !
