    This device was on sale at the right time to give me plenty of space for a local backup and transfer to a new machine. Good speed and compact. I've seen these drives in use aft my local library so they are common.

    if you looking for phone or laptop storage than this is the product for you! Very user friendly instructions. I was able to free up so much space on me phone as well as my laptop, which I hadn't planed on using because I thought that my phone would have been it.

    NICE USB DRIVE

    The Western Digital - easystore® 1TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drives (QTY = 2) that I purchased were on sale for a terrific price (hence, why I bought 2). They were effortless to plug in and start using. Western Digital is a terrific brand and I hope these drives last for many years. Having 1TB is plenty of space and will accommodate the backups I make of my PC's hard drive each time I travel ... so I just take the USB drive with me and then have access to any file I need from my laptop.

    Very Happy with the WD Easystore 1TB

    I needed two external storage devices to back up my MacBook Pro and my wife's MacBook Air and found the WD Easystore 1TB at a good price. It works fine on both laptops in conjunction with Apple's Time Machine application. Its small size and being powered through its cable testify to its portability, and it is quiet. It comes with a USB 3 cable, so I purchased one Thunderbolt 3 adapter for my wife's newer MacBook Air. We are very happy with the WD Easystore 1TB.
