Lots of storage at a good price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works pretty well, transfers are pretty quick on USB 3.0. I didn't like all the software it tried to install when I first got it, but now it has been reformatted and runs like any other storage drive.
I would recommend this to a friendThis is my 3rd WD External drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The drive works fine but had some issue when I connected to my powered USB Hub. It only stay connected for few hours then disconnected and restarted. When I connected direct to my computer USB port, it connected all day. You may think the issue can be my USB hub does not have enough power to handle 3 USB drives but that is not true. I tested only connected one drive, it still disconnected and restarted. My other 2 other drives are 3TB and 5 TB, they connected all day without any issue.

I would recommend this to a friendPortable hard drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the WD easy store portable hard drive about a month an a half. I still trying to get it to working. The first problem is that their is no instructioning to follow. I have try to backup my computer for a few weeks and still won't backup my computer. I waited to long to return this product, now I am stuck with it. I thought I was getting a great idea but like some people say if it too good to be true , you better be careful. Now I have a nice looking paper weight, or put it in my bookshelf as part of my library. Sorry!
