It’s ok.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s ok in a pinch. You can hear the machine grinding away as it’s working with the computer. I have another one that seems much faster, much more stable. I had to get one quickly to put some backups on so it’s ok. If I wanted a hard workhorse, I would choose differently.

A good drive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't expect blazing fast speeds or anything special, but it's a good drive which hopefully will last. I use it mostly for offline backups so it's not is connected or used on a daily basis. I wouldn't use a drive with this speed or size (3.5') for anything else really. I bought it for a good price and so far it did his job.

Good HDD, reformat before use!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This external drive initially gave me some issues with my PC from 2014. The drive comes formatted in exfat file format. My PC wouldn't boot up if the drive was plugged in. WD support told me to format the drive in NTFS format. That fixed the issue and now operates fine with my PC. This info should be included in the instructions or the drive should be formatted by default to the most universal format possible.
