    Compatibility

    This device was not compatible and would not backup files all files from my PC laptop. It requires multiple steps to initiate backup. I used a previous model(WD passport) on the same laptop that worked well. All I needed to do was connect the previous version, open app and the backup would start. I thought this new device would be an upgrade but it took multiple steps with every backup, would perform partial backup and it was VERY slow. I am still to test if the files are retrievable.

    Not a dependable back up as it misses auto schedule. You need to check that the backup happened as programmed.
