    If you’re looking for a plug and go hard drive, this is a great product. It’s very user friendly and easy to add to. I’ve never once had any connectivity issues. However I will say that WD really screwed themselves by showing options for their features they offer in entirety from the desktop app. THIS HARD DRIVE DOES NOT HAVE ANY OF THE OFFERED FEATURES! The cloud service, the security features, and a bunch of other services to the point where the device is not readily found like the others on their platform. I was disappointed to not have those features more then I was about the quality of the hard drive. Not sure if anyone else would consider this a deal breaker but had I known I would of gone with another device.

    This is a great hard drive for being an external one. It’s definitely not the speed of an ssd, but it is a great deal for a 5TB. For large storage for files and others (wouldn’t say games) it’s definitely a steal.
