    This external drive holds a lot of data. It is good for personal use, and could be good for a small business to back up their data.

    Good shucking drive, no longer WD Reds

    Affordable drive to shuck and put into NAS builds. I don't actually use these as USB drives. However, they're no longer the Western Digital Reds that people have reported in earlier reviews. They're now generic Western Digital drives with no sub branding. Which makes me pretty certain they're SMR drives to keep the price low. So if you are avoiding SMR drives, this might not be the drive for you.

    The included backup software is limited, but is quick & dependable. Easy to set up. Need to use additional software with it, if you want to do incremental backups.
