    It was defective piece. WD support was excellent, tried to troubleshoot and advised for replacement. In short, within a week of use, it started to make noise. Returned it. Went with SSD.

    This hard drive didn't last a week, noisy and it vibrated, maybe I got a bad one ,but for being advertised as a backup, I wouldn't trust getting one.

    Worked to backup old computer. Tried accessing it the next and the external drive would not mount. Everything I had backed up disappeared. Let the computer sit for a bit and was able to find the backed up items; but it's hit and miss when it works. Disappointed purchase for the amount spent.

    Recently this product was not being detected by my PC but it could detect my Toshiba 64GB Flash Drive.. The light goes on but doesn't flicker. I treid it on my backup PC which is newer than my main one and the easystore could not be detected. This had high reviews before I went ahead and purchased it. As of this issue I cannot recommend this product.

    I've had the drive for 2 weeks, and have already had to repair it 3 times. It refuses to eject under Windows 10, so I have to completely shut down the computer to unplug the drive safely. I was hoing it would be more stable than my old Seagate drive, but sadly, it's not
