    Good. Not average, not great. It stores well but has heated up twice during usage (thus, I am unsure just how long the unit will hold data). I recommend that reviews be two fold: a) first one being within 2 weeks of usage and b) second one done at 8-12 months.

    I'm using this with my iMac's Time Machine and it works flawlessly. Small footprint and single USB cable makes it perfect.

    It's super good, I got it on sale. 50$ is well worth the price. I needed it because my flash drive was so small and could not hold all my graphic design work.

    WP products provide good digital storage. Over time the cable connections to your device can fail so you have to replace every couple of years.

    Very small and portable. Easy to set-up and use. You need to buy extra storage because new laptops don't have that much internal storage.

    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 !
