    I was running out of space on my laptop so needed a hard drive for backup of tons of pictures and documents, etc. This drive did the trick...easy to use and has ample storage.

    I've been using a variety of WD Easystore hard drives and they've performed just fine. As with any drive, they don't last forever, so be sure to keep at least two backups, and consider a cloud backup as well for critical files - don't put all your eggs in one basket! This one was for my Father-in-Law to back up his photos off his desktop, and it worked just fine. Not much more to say - I didn't use the backup software, just did a simple disk-to-disk copy. Recommended.

    I bought this on sale for my college bound child to take with him for storing larger files that a memory-limited MacBook can’t hold, especially all the media that he records from his SLR camera
