    1. CrystalDiskMark to check status of the disk. 2. WD Data LifeGuard to do a full write (erase) to the disk. 3. Windows to do a full format 4. WD Data LifeGuard to do a long self test 5. Re-Verify data in Crystal Disk Info to make sure during all that nothing went bad.

    I bought this particular hard drive to hook up to my new computer that I had just had built. I also own 5 other WD passport 4 tb external hard drives and have never had any problems with the WD brand. I am happy with my purchase and the speed of transfer rate.

    I've owned one of these devices before (by WD) and unfortunately lost ALL of my data as the drive failed at one point. Since that time, I've not purchased another external drive by WD however I've decided to give it another go with this purchase. Time will tell as I house critical data on this device but so far so good. ...but this time my data is redundant and I have it backed up twice to two different devices. ;)

    Yes, it was plug and play. I could probably wish for something a bit faster, but since it is a back-up device that runs while I'm asleep zzzzzzz

    I got one about 6 weeks ago and when I went to hook it up to my new iMac it would not install or recognize the drive. I took it back and then a couple weeks ago I bought another one. This one worked perfect from the start. I guess the first one was just a bad one.
