    I used this hard drive more as a mass USB storage device transporting large files between devices. I got it on a sale, and has worked reliably and consistently.

    Duplicated the item which was chosen when Geek Squad recovered lost files and put them onto a new hard drive. They both are good products

    Keeps it Simple. Like the size, price and connecting method - a single cable does it all.

    I was amazed how light this thing is. So I put it on an old Pitney Bowes letter scale and weighed it. 4.75 oz. Amazing. and it's only 14mm thick. put it in your shirt pocket and have room left for a pack of smokes. I don't know about the speed. I typically see in Windows Task Mgr speeds 100-120 MBps. Huge backups complete very quickly compared to my experience with older equipment. I'm very pleased with the transfer speed, but should I expect better? I mean, there's absolutely no info on the box or anywhere that identifies the drive inside the plastic, or any specs about its speed or power rating or anything. btw. I'll mention. I later bought the 4TB model too, expecting it to surpass this 2TB in all the above things. I am a bit disappointed to find the 4TB model is half again as thick, twice as heavy, runs warmer and is nearly 10% slower. So, be aware when you buy another of these easystores that the other models are not necessarily equivalent in quality.

    WD Easy Store external hard drive is new to me so have not had extensive use of device to compare to the WD My Passport HD; however, this was a good price for 2TB of memory and is suppose to Automatically back up my data from the PC Hard Drive. Will monitor and give further feedback later but I would recommend this Brand for an external hard drive.

    I needed a backup for my computer. Best Buy had these on sale for a great price. The 2 TB is a huge size but I am sure I will use it. I also like the USB 3.0 transfer speed. Thank Best Buy for carrying these.
