    Got this to use with my dad's computer, and it works great. I can back up his photos any time and know that whatever he does to his computer, his pictures will be fine.

    I bought this as a DVR for my DISH Wally. It's pretty much plug and play. The Wally recognized it, formatted it, and set it up. It works flawlessly.

    I like to be safe. This External Portable Hard Drive allows me to control my writing and to have it with me. In my mind this is better than the safety of the cloud.

    Bought this for my Mac as hard drives that are formatted for PC's are not compatible. I have purchased several of these over the years and they always work great!

    Love these. I am going to purchase the TB later. Had one before this and it quit working. I want to blame it on exposure to extreme cold weather up north. I had it for 6 years. Otherwise no issues

    I have needed something to back/copy my files and pics from my PC for some time now. But have hesitated, not being aware of how easy it could be to install and copy files. Finally gave in due to reviews and a recommendation by my son. Love my WD-easystore.

    Needed to back-up my computer by having a hard copy, not just the on-line cloud. This serves my need very well. Glad I made the purchase.

    I am only giving this a 4 at this time as I am new to this technology of trying to backup data from an older MacBook Pro laptop... just in case. This was easy to use with my laptop in combination with Time Machine, something else I had never used before. My question to myself was why had I not purchased one sooner?

    I loved the fact that they ALL pitched in and helped me out. I got a GREAT understanding about laptops and the issues i was having with my laptop. They even took the time to find the product i needed for the laptop and made sure it was sent off A.S.A.P.. Shout out to Marcos and Stephen and the rest of them. We laughed and really chilled. The time actually flew by. I ACTUALLY got to know those guys. Like i saidd i enjoyed it. No issues here

    Our desktop motherboard went out and we took it to the Geek Squad to see if they could recover our files. We bought the external hard drive and they were able to save everything and transfer it.

    I purchased this for my son for Christmas since he's been wanting more memory for his games and so far he has been very happy with the space he has for it now. That's all I have to say about that.
