Great HDD
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great external hard drive that I'll use in with my HTPC. One of my older Seagate drives bit the dust and I found out it only had a 1 year warranty on it. So, I decided to stick with WD from now on as I've had no problems with their drives in the past. This also has a 2 year warranty should anything happen. I don't use any of the software that comes with the drive so I can't comment on that.

Major problems installing it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just purchased today , and had major problems installing the software and getting to unit to begin a data back up (Windows 10, which box states it is for Windows 10). After the software installed, it did not work. A pop up box came up saying there was a software update, which I agreed to install, and it required a re-start of PC. When PC turned back on, the screen was black for an hour. Had to manually power off the PC. Re-started computer, and it no longer even recognized that the external hard drive was present. Un-installed all software after ejecting device (to safely remove). Installed software for WD direct. Same issue. It will be returned tomorrow. Over 2 hours attempting to install this. Never had a problem with previous WD or Toshiba external hard drives in past. Buyer beware.
