    I bought this to hold all of the information that I had stored on 1 gig and smaller storage drives. It gave me a chance to delete duplicate files as well as re-prioritize information (music, movies, pictures and documents.) and dump what was no longer important or relevant.

    I really like this external hard drive by Western Digital. It looks very nice sitting on my computer tower. And being 2TB I am assured that everything is being continuously backed up, keeping my important information safe, as well as my photos and web graphics.

    I purchased 3 of these to have offline backup of important documents from my computer. Every 3 or 4 months, I attach one to my computer, backup what need and then store it in a safe place. No issues so far.

    Considered an online back up service for my PC but found most reviews weren't positive indicating the apps slow your PC considerable. Chose to try this external hard drive with backup. It was inexpensive and is working well. I am saving money every month with this device.

    We needed a couple of portable hard drive’s to back up some custom content we created for a client to review. Ran out to Best Buy and purchased two of these and they were super easy to deal with. The way they come out of the box and plug and plY is great!

    How much space does someone need? This is the second drive just like the first one I bought so you know I like it. These are laptop drives assembled into an external USB case exclusively for Best Buy. They are ideal for backing up my data hard drive D with 400 gigabytes of data.

    Fridge is noce and seems to work well. It’s larger than I expected and was a very tight fit for a standard cabinet size. I had my co tractor install it and it took some work. It gets cold, and works well, but the wire shelves are disappointing as water bottles and plastic bottles do not stand up and they teeter and fall as soon as you open or close the door. Cans work fine. Bottles not so much.

    I needed a portable hard drive for a new computer I was getting and was needed something to transfer my old files from my old computer to my new one. I decided to do this through just using a portable hard drive and wanted to transfer my files from one to another.

    This device was very easy to install and use! I am glad that I attempted to install on my own (with the help of my twenty-something year old son) instead of paying the $80 at the store. BUY IT, and store your STUFF!!!
