Not my favorite, but growing on me.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the first WD I bought in a while after earlier WD's died on me. I am mostly a Seagate buyer. The price was too good to pass up on this one. It has not quit. Data transfers are fast. The software is troublesome, I would not suggest using it.
