Unbiased purchaser wishing for more from this
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I honestly wanted this to work, I did. It didn't! I use a Mac, and I reformatted using disk utility, and it would not partition, it would not erase, it would not use first aid. Maybe I just had a bad unit, but this will not be in my household to back up 8TB worth of Video projects. No sir! I'm going with the G-Technology G-Drive Thunderbolt when it comes back into stock. I will say this, its great for a PC as its NTFS so it easily booted up and was working great on my wife's PC, however, reformatting it to Mac out of the box, was not an option, I tried it all people. It just wasn't in the cards.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Reliability

Great external drive for backup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 3rd external drive by WD and I've had nothing but a great experience with them. Setup was basically just plug and play, I didn't need to do anything else. I have moved this drive back and forth between my Windows 10 computer and Linux computer without any issues. I would recommend this for your next backup drive, especially when they are on sale!
