    This is a great drive for $139! When you register with WD, you’ll get 2 years of warranty. You can’t go wrong with that. This drive was recommended to me and i’m recommending it to others.

    Makes no sense that an external hard drive is cheaper than an internal one, but, whatever. I picked this up, popped the case off, took the hard drive out and jammed it in my computer. Now, I can save stuff to it. Also, I got a usb 3.0 case for whenever something comes up.

    I purchased this hard drive on Dec 1st, 2020. I was using it to back up my laptop. I recently purchased a new laptop also from Best Buy. I backed up the old laptop to the hard drive. When I plugged it into the new laptop I could not see the hard drive. I made an appointment with GeeK Squad. The employee I spoke to said he plugged the hard drive into a computer and could not see the hard drive. He said it appears the hard drive has failed. He also said there was nothing Best would/could do and that I would have to deal with the manufacturer. We have purchased numerous appliances, TV’s and computers from Best Buy. In the future I will make sure to shop Best Buy competitors before purchasing anything from Best Buy!

    I really like these drives so much, I bought one last year, so I have two now. They have update the controller or something and these from this year are much faster that the one for a year ago.
