Small enough to fit anywhere
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great, but the install instructions were non existent. Also there is no off/on button or power light, so you really do not no if it is on or off.

Second times the charm
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this drive to backup a Windows PC. Ran WD sector test and test failed. Called WD and they said there was probably a bad sector on disk. So I exchanged for another one at Best Buy. Next one passed test and works fine.

Backup Hard Drive
