    My 8-year old (ancient!?) external hard drive started giving me trouble. It was taking longer to back up a file but worse it some times "disappeared". Rebooting the system brought it back but I have too many files to risk it failing if the computer konks out. I looked for a replacement external hard drive and zeroed in on the WD 2 Tb USB portable hard drive. So far, I am happy with it. It's easy to install. I'd have given it 5 stars except that I didn't like the "auto-backup" feature that seemed to take forever. The drive comes with a utilities program that allowed me to stop the auto-back up. I've been used to backing up everything I do dating back to the 2-floppy era so, thank you, I'll do it when I want to. If it lasts as long as its predecessor, I'll be highly pleased.

    Does the job. Only issue I have found is that in the past some of these exact models can start to malfunction after a while. Might be better off paying more for a SSHD.

    still learning to use software on the computer however the hard drive does accept the data and appears to be working. I have not done at restore. It is a repository of the data only. Scheduling etc is done on your computer.

    Needed to find a quick upgrade for my PS4 and found this little beauty. Read a couple reviews and did some research on the easystore and was automatically hooked when it was PS4 compatible. Havent downloaded games into it yet because I have been to busy working. But to have it on deck and ready to download any game off the ps4 network or disc keeps me peace at mind. Ps4 reads and notices the easystorage hd. Just plug in ps4 and follow quick simple directions and your ready to do and have 2.5tb of downloadable content.
