    I have a laptop with minimal storage and this device is a life saver! I can now store all of my info in one place without taking space from my computer. I love this hard drive!

    This is a nice small platter drive - works great and was very inexpensive (compared to SSD). Also platters are better (IMO) for CCTV video storage since no issues with too many re-writes for SSD style HDs.

    I have several of these and I haven't had any problems. Some of mine are several years old and haven't failed me yet. I back up everything I want to keep multiple times on different externals.

    I had a few backup devices in the past and each one had one or more issues. This device by Western Digital is great! It is easy to use, and I was able to back up my entire hard drive in a relatively short space of time despite the drive size. It was literally plug and play and I did not have to do too much or have any real technical know how to set this up and get it going. The item itself is small enough to fit on a shelf or a safe space. It is light weight and I really would recommend this to anyone looking for external storage devices.

    I did not have any problem connecting this to my iMac. I'm using it for a database and not a backup drive. This drive is small and compact and I needed which this Drive has his 2 TB. It also uses a USB 3.0 cable, which comes with the drive. Thumb drives/flash drives would not do the trick.
