    Just plug and use. Quick transfer time. Bulky size no problem for me given the savings over same capacity slim model.

    This was a great purchase at a great price. It was easy to set up out of the box and I hope to have a long term use of it.

    Great plug and play drive however it does not come with security software (to lock the drive). AND they do not put a warning on the package even though most of their other products contain the security feature.

    Happy with the product once I exchanged it but it arrived damaged from shipping and we didnt realize it until after it was opened as a gift. The box wasn't damaged but there was a large piece rattling around inside. When I tried to exchange it at the store, they only sold it online. No biggie, I reorder what I thought was the same thing and ended up with a portable 4tb external hard drive. But, it all worked out in the end and we are still happy!

    WD has been my go to brand for years. I've never had a problem with a WD. At 4Tb this drive can back up everything on my computer and mirror my portable drives that I use to carry files with me.
