    So far, this hard drive seems fine. I like that it uses the same cord as my other WD as well as my Seagate hard drive. It is small and convenient. Four stars because my other WD came with a protective case, which this one did not. I don't like that. Transfer of all types of data, whether it be .pdf files, music, or movies, is quick and seamless as well.

    I picked this up as a deal of the day. Needed something to store photos, videos, files, etc. This gets the job done which is all you can ask. Only recommendation is that you change the drive format to something like exfat so it works on Mac as well as Windows.
