    It has a nice build quality on it, i can't say how good the drive is as I've been too lazy to transfer my files over to it but at least i opened the box up and powered it on and that worked as expected. Score!

    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.
