    This is simply used as a back up to store data from another drive. It does the job nicely and didn't cost a fortune.

    This is the only external hard drive that I buy to backup files, pictures, and save my files on my Macs. I use it for all my Macbooks and IMac with no issues. I am able to access files with very quicky. I highly recommend the WD versus other brands. I had owned and used other name brands and found WD is much better built.
