Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the ample storage space and ease of use of the My Book 5TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive. The drive's reliability and price point are also frequently praised, along with its fast USB 3.0 transfer speeds and quiet operation. While some users found the included software less intuitive, the positive feedback on other features outweighs this concern.

    This is a good HDD. I would have given it 5 stars, but the transfer rate could be a bit faster for USB 3.0. Other than that it meets all my expectations.
