    I had to buy to save my data from a 3tb external hard drive that's on it's way out. Easy to set up and plenty of room for years to come.

    Great backup drive. As mentioned earlier I trust WD since my 2 other seagate BU drives crashed. I would definitely recommend these for storage.

    Excellent for storing pictures and video. If the drive is less than 50% full, it can even take post production 1080 "punishment"

    Great for additional storage. The cables are a little short so get a longer one if your a normal person and have you ex-drive located more than a foot from the computer

    A big part of the reason I bought this drive was to backup my main drives. OOPS! The software really stinks. Ending up buying a much better commercial backup utility. On the good side, this drive is fast and very quiet. It does what I want it to do.

    I got a white label one, since I don’t plan to use it in NAS, it does not make any difference. It is quiet, not running hot, just what I like.
