    Not for Mac users

    This is not a good fit for MacBook users. The USB-A to Mini USB cable is not good for any Mac with USB-C ports and it requires reformatting and is not a simple “plug and play”.

    I love WD drives and currently have several but I ordered this 22tb one new online through Best buy and when I plugged it in it was a 150gb drive. I'm assuming someone bought it opened it up and replaced it then returned it and they resold it as brand new, ordered it the 21st got it today on the 25th and just got back from returning it. The drives are good but I don't recommend buying things from bestbuy unless it's in store.
