Didn't work for me & WD customer service was slow
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not tech savvy and purchased this late in 2017 because it was advertised as easy to use. I installed it on my Dell desktop and it wouldn't perform a back up as I understood it would do. I have been in contact with WD support at least 5 times - probably more like 10+ times over the past many months. They take several days to reply with an answer that is hard to understand and so far this drive is still not up and running as I understand it should. They have escalated my situation to their senior staff but then the communications with them just seem to have died. I wish I could return it to Best Buy for a full refund but I am long past the 90 day return window given all the time I have spent with WD Customer Service. It has been close to a nightmare. I'll never buy another WD product again.
