    I have turned off several times the electricity by mistake and no problems. Most of the time HD gets corrupted or inaccessible.,

    Runs fast on my windows 10 machine. It was a little slower on my older PC but that has more to do with the PC than the harddrive.

    Very happy they were non white label reds, and were the “made in Thailand” drives too so they had a larger cache than white label drives

    Use this for all my movies. It has never failed and is fast enough. Does have a little lag if you haven't used it in awhile and sometimes the noise is louder than my other WD drives. Very minimal problems for the size of this and price.

    Product could be great but I needed it formatted for a mac. No problem I am a Total Tech member so I called and after a transfer to India the drive was supposedly formatted. Plugged it in and nothing had been done. I will be returning it. Will also be canceling Total Tech
