    I got this to replace a 4tb My Passport drive because I was running out of room. This one works fine but it is noisy compared to the My Passport. There is a steady thump thump sound when it is on. I have been able to archive a lot of files to it.

    Solid choice for extra storage. This is my 3rd one, and they each perform solidly. I mainly use them for backup and for media storage on my computers and server.

    I've had good luck in the past with WD hard drives so this should hold up as well.
