    I got this for a steal and I'm happy I picked up the last one in store. I love how far technology has gone. I have an old 1TB that is larger and heavier than this and required its own power source. This one is palm sized, 4 times the capacity and can fit into a pocket.

    I needed a backup for my backup. I plugged this baby in and then backed up everything from my other external backup. It's so nice that this is portable. After everything saved, I put it in my safe in case of fire. Now I can sleep much better at night knowing all my files are safe!

    I've stayed far away from WD for the last few years. They've been having a lot of problems with there external drives dying right after the warranty expires. I'm pretty impressed with the transfer speed, even with older computers. As for the provided software, you can skip.

    Western Digital is a wonderful brand. I have always been satisfied with this brand. This external HD is perfect for storing all my pictures on it and passing it around to my friends. It is Windows and Mac compatible so just plug and play.

    When you need a lot of data to fit in a small space, this is definitely the drive to get. I recommend pairing it with one of the WD portable drive protective carry cases to make it easier to keep together and to protect it from otherwise nasty drops.

    Great hard drive! Just plug it in to your computer and it installs the software needed. It's great for saving all of your pictures you have on your computer to keep them safe in case your computer hard drive crashes. Have owned this brand in the past and have been very satisfied!

    I saw this on sale for a customer appreciation day at $89.99, so I bought it. They usually go for $199.99 and may have just dropped to $149.99 so I got it at a great price. I use mine for my PC backups which tend to be very large. I'm very happy with it.

    I have one for my Xbox and it works great. I needed another one for my son gaming system so I choose this one because I have no issue with the first one. When the time for another I will get this one again. Great price and storage, what more can you ask for.

    This USB Hard drive is one the easiest I have every installed and used. You only need to plug the hard drive into a free USB slot and let Windows install it's drivers. Once this is done the drive is reedy to use. You don't have to format the drive or anything.
