    I am very happy with my purchase of the WD 8TB external EasyStore disk. I just plugged it in and it worked perfectly. When connected to a USB port on the back of my Dell Alienware desktop, it kept disconnecting. When I moved the plug to the front panel, it has not disconnected for a few weeks now. Not sure what is up with that.

  • No way to turn off the timeout option

    great product but if you are trying to upload a lot of files. The timeout function kicks in and corrupts the download. It would be nice if there was an option to turn off the timeout or extend it longer than 30 minutes for large file use.
