    Works well, although I think it makes the computer lag a bit if it's kept plug in. I usually keep in unplug when not in use

    These WD are famous for being "shuckable" -- I ended up with some good drives to use. They have been solid so far.

    The storage space is huge. But it is very noisy once you start it or use it for Time Machine backup. I always eject the hard drive immediately after use, so I can have a quiet room.
