    Been using this drive for almost a month now and have had no issues with it. Easily transportable and installs simply by plugging the USB connector in. Have always had good luck with WD products.

    Have been using WD hard drives for years and they always perform flawlessly. Bought this 5TB unit to store a lot of photos. Works great as expected. I always recommend WD for storage. Even better when you can catch it on sale :)

    Fast and reliable for PC backup

    I got this after reading several reviews. I needed something portable and with enough space to backup my entire laptop (2.5 tb across two internal SSD drives plus a Windows image.) It works great, fast and reliably. I've used it twice to restore a system image without issue, which is great for peace of mind. Plus I can make a full PC backup in less than one hour, which I think is fast The backup software that you can install is not worth it. I just use the built-in windows backup. The read and write times are around 100 for most things. For a HDD, I think that's fine. I recommend this if you need a portable drive with lots pf space.

    I have owned western digital hard drives in the past, very happy with their product and performance. It’s gonna take me years before I fill up 5 TB. Bought this on sale which made it even a better purchase.
