    The drive works fine but had some issue when I connected to my powered USB Hub. It only stay connected for few hours then disconnected and restarted. When I connected direct to my computer USB port, it connected all day. You may think the issue can be my USB hub does not have enough power to handle 3 USB drives but that is not true. I tested only connected one drive, it still disconnected and restarted. My other 2 other drives are 3TB and 5 TB, they connected all day without any issue.

    Works pretty well, transfers are pretty quick on USB 3.0. I didn't like all the software it tried to install when I first got it, but now it has been reformatted and runs like any other storage drive.

    Use a few of these to back up and store digital photos. I've been very satisfied with the easystore drives. The WD software allows you to back up your whole system or select files and folders.
