    I wasn't able to connect the drive using the easystore software. I contacted WD and was told to bypass it and use windows backup instead. I had hoped to use the easystore features and obtain updates. Not going to happen.

    Easy to install and configure the portable storage. Giving 1 Star because the security module is not available for the portable storage. I’m not sure why such a product is manufactured without security controls.

    This HD requires reformatting, which did not work, and then, NTFS software which costs $19.95. At this point with remote HDs, when they say they are Mac compatible, they should be plug and use, period.

    I have called the company several times and after they get it working, it fails the next day. It hasn't backed up the last month and I have not had time to spend another hour or hour and a half on the phone with them.
