    Got it on sale and have been very satisfied. I use it on a Mac so make sure to use the WD utility to format the drive instead of Disk Utilities

    I've purchase two of these for raw storage and they hold up very well. Quick seek time on 3.0. Wish it had the ability to be on a Ethernet but that's an upgraded model. Only reason I have given it a 4/5 the other I purchased had to be replaced within a year. Again manufacturer did a good job replacing but just lost some data due to bad sectors on the drive.

    Very easy to setup, no unnecessary software or drivers to install. Works perfectly out of the box. My only issue is that I need all of my drives to sit horizontally, and this unit only has rubberized feet for sitting vertically.

    I bought this hard drive as a backup for my Xbox One S to my almost full 4TB USB WD external hard drive. Works great, just as advertised, and I got it while it was on an incredible sale, so it didn't hurt the wallet too much either.
