Even though this is a USB 3.0 drive, at times it copies even SLOWER than a 2TB USB 2.0 drive that I have.
I cannot tell if it is my computer's USB 3.0 that is messed up, but I don't have any other USB 3.0 machine.
Also the WD software tools absolutely stink! It could not even finish a pared down backup list as a test. I could not partition this drive via Windows 7 Computer Management. Also needed to use the WD tools.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

What else can you say except this thing is gigantic. I ran out of space on my 1TB drive. When transferring ALL my files over, I still have 73% FREE SPACE. There is plenty of room to grow with all my photos and videos. I have it connected to a USB 2.0 port on my router, but it is still fast. I've only had it for 2 months, so I can't attest to its reliability. My previous 1 TB drive was a WD. It was almost 3 years old and still running perfectly, which was why I stayed with WD when I needed to upgrade.

WD-My Book: Good for archiving ultrasound images. I have been using these products for a few years. I had a bad experience on the two of the products. I could not access the archive images after about two years. I took one of the hard drive to a best buy store and was told that I might be charge up to $1200.00/each to recover the contents.

First, it passed all of its tests. Some other brand drives failed their own tests which may take seven hours or so to complete. People should run the tests immediately after such a purchase to assure they have a fully functional hard drive. My only second thought is that I would like it to have been a larger hard drive at a similar price.
