    This external drive gave me a lot of storage space for storing extra files such as photos and videos without having to eat up my computer's main storage... and for the price I got it at for when it was on sale it was well worth the price too with 4TB of additional storage to use on this separate external hard drive!

    Plug and play ,,love it, I have bought several other hard drive units before and hands-down this one is the easiest to use. I would definitely recommend this to all my friends and family. Made backing up all my photos of breeze with the plug and play capability . Hooking it up to my network router was also a breeze. Now all my wireless products can exes music and pictures very quickly.

    I bought this to backup my two Macs. I connected it to one Mac and formatted it as HFS extended. Then connected it to the USB port of my Asus router that supports time machine. Configured it in the router and now both of my Macs are performing time machine backups to this hard drive automatically. So far good.

    This is actually my second one. I dropped the first one on a hard surface and broke it. Get the Geek squad protection. Anyway, when I wasn't dropping it, it was a very reliable HD for my XBOX One. Never any issue before and since I had a positive experience with it, I came back and bought a new one. This does need need to be plugged in so you can't run it just by USB.

    Pretty much plug and play, and is working nicely for my PS4. Instead of buying an upgraded PS4 with only 1TB of storage, I now have 4TB at 1/3 the cost.

    I am only giving this a 4 star rating because the backup software really sucks. Contacted WD about it and they aren't going to do anything about it, I guess. Using drag and drop works much better, so I will continue using that for my backups.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This hard drive was replacing another one as an external backup. One of my older drives stopped working so I swapped some drives around. It's connected to an iMac and used for Time Machine. I can't speak to any of the software or tools that come with the drive since I just wipe the drive and let macOS handle it when it configures it for Time Machine use.
