Quiet, fast, reliable, roomy drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm using this external HD as my TimeMachine back-up. I appreciate the indicator light that show's it's powered up and whether it's actively interfacing with the computer or sitting idly. It has functioned flawlessly since I bought it a few months ago. I had it replace one that had failed. Based on advice from in-store advisor, I'll probably proactively replace this one in about 3 years, so I don't have to start my back-ups from scratch and lose my history as I did for this one. Then this one could be used for a less "critical" back-up function.

Very inexpensive for 4 TB of storage.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the drive as a redundant drive to my current 1.5TB WD. It is slower than the 1.5TB, but adequate for what use it for. Both are connected with USB 2.0 to my HP i5 laptop. For $99 it is an excellent drive and meets all my requirements.

Great storage but ...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought 2 of these to store and transfer files between computers. They are perfect for storage, but the fact that they require both the power cable and the USB 3 cable make it a bit of a hassle ... especially if you have a limited amount of outlets.
