    This is one of many external hard drives I've purchased in the last few years. It is as easy as any of them to set up, and so far it's been working the way it's supposed to.

    Very simple installation and enough space for me! I looked online first before purchasing rather it be reviews or pricing and it turns out, the price online was cheaper, but Best Buy matched it at the store!

    These items were purchased to hold and back up my photo collection. I had assistance in installing the externals but the company was easy to work with and provided great directions. I am very satisfied with my externals.

    I bought this specifically for use with my Wii-U to expand the storage capacity. I've been using Western Digital products for many, many years now and had this particular model already and never had problems.
