    The hard drive is easy to use, however it won't safely disconnect unless the computer is shut down.

    WD Backup Software Issue

    I purchased this drive last year and it seems to do the job. However, I think I was mislead by the mention that WD backup software was included. This is still mentioned in the specs but it is not available from WD. They mention Acronis which requires a license. I have been using WIndows file history but because I was unable to figure out the WD backup offer until now. Somewhat misleading specs because I purchased this particular drive to do auto backups and expected it to be easy. It does not seem that's the case.

    Good price for an external hard drive. Easy to set up and it’s program runs in the background and keeps me backed up without me having to do anything. I’ve never really had an issue with WD products.

    Used this for my son's ps4. Once he saw me upgrade my PS4 he wanted to do the same to his. If you are on the fence about this accessory purchase just do it, it's the single best item you can buy to make gaming a more pleasurable experience.

    Look, this isn't the fastest drive you're ever going to find. I bought it for my son to back up his computer before he put it into storage for a couple of months. It's perfectly speedy enought for that (and yes, we'll get him onto a cloud based backup once he's up and running again). USB3, powered by the PC itself, it's as handy as a pocket knife.

    I got this after I had a laptop stolen without a recent backup, not too bright on my part. This drive is big enough to backup all of our devices and is not only compact, but easy to use.

    (10/7/2021) I was in search of a hard drive that I could store videos that I create for YouTube. The one I had previously purchased was no longer being sold. After doing some research I picked the Easystore and it's been working great so far. The only 2 differences between an Easystore and a regular Western Digital is the price and the the abilty to password protect.
