It took several tries over several days to finally install built-in back-up software! Was thinking about returning the drive, before the BU software finally installed. Otherwise, I would give it 5 stars! BU software appears to operate correctly after installation.

A lot of value for a lot of storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had been storing my photos on a second hard drive in my desktop computer so I was running out of space. I bought the My Book 4TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive for two main reasons. 1. I was concerned that my old drive would eventually fail. 2. My new camera's file sizes are very large and after I edit some of the photos the file size is even larger when saved as .PSD. So far the hard drive works as I expected. It is fast and does not slow me down while I am editing and saving my photos. I've set up automatic backup to back up any changes in my files so I don't have to worry about it.
