    The WD Easystore was very easy to start using. Simply plug into your computer and it starts working on its own. It took quite a while to back-up but there was a lot of data to save.

    I purchased to replace two older externals used on an iMac for the "time machine" backup. There were indications that one of those drives were failing. Since installing these they have performed flawlessly.

    This external storage drive is small enough to fit into my laptop bag and yet big enough, storage wise, to meet my back-up needs. Easy to use. Would recommend to a friend.

    Bought this hd to replace an older version. Thought it would be a good idea to stay current on my backups and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. Simple to setup and use. Nice and compact for moving around.

    Though not the fastest on the market, the WD Elements' large capacity makes it an excellent deal considering its low price.You have to pay extra to use its included backup software after the introductory 30-day trial. The drive has no security features and carries a short warranty of just one year.

    I've always relied on Western Digital drives for over 20 years and so far have never had an issue, knock on wood. This was on sale and being portable, with no power supply needed makes it easy to recommend

    This was so easy to use. I have never used an external hard drive before. It was easy to see it on my old laptop and easy to download files onto it. It was just as easy to upload the files to my new laptop.

    I bought it so Geek Squad could salvage some files from a crashed hard drive. The drive was toast, so they could not recover anything. So I use the Easystore to to backup my new computer. Works just fine!

    It's amazing how much capacity this little thing has - way more than I needed but it was the smallest one available - and it was still a reasonable price. It will be handy to keep all my pictures backed up.
