    Extremely happy so far with this purchase. I got it because my computer was making a clicking sound and I wanted to back up all my stuff on the computer in the event it crashes. Transferred all my photos, documents, etc and was amazingly fast. I still have a ton of space left on it for future backup. Well worth it.

    So far, so good. Using it for my Xbox Series X just to hold extra titles so I don't have to download them whenever I feel like playing. Won't play Series X games from this drive, you have to transfer back to the internal for them to work, but faster than downloading them again. Had a Seagate drive before but it died, WD holding up pretty strong so far.
