    Easy to use and quick retrieval and loading times. It was a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it so far and would recommend. Took some time to move everything from the Xbox to the hard drive but that was the only time-consuming component.

    This is my second wd external. I have been very happy with them the first one even worked after accidental drop kick. Transfer speeds are good and haven't noticed any lag during play back from the drive. Also nice and quiet

    This provides an excellent storage for my photos. I preferred to not pay monthly fees for a a cloud storage account. I have had no problems with WD hard drives in the past and so far this device is very satisfactory.

    This My Book 6TB drive was very easy to setup and use. I recommend it to anyone who has lots of business records or images to keep track of them. If you have the USB 3 port it is very fast moving the data over too.

    I have five of these drives in a cadre that I use to back up various kind of data. One for pictures, several for Karaoke Host systems, and for personal documents. Have not had any problems at all with them.

    I bought this so I had a backup for all of my pictures. It is really easy to use and simple start up instructions. I am not the best with gadgets and I was able to figure it out.

    I deal with extensive video file projects, and this product is just the unit I need to archive all the raw footage I use in one place so I don't have to hunt over multiple smaller drives.

    With mean failure percentages on drives at about 2-5 percent per year it makes sense to keep a second backup of your data. This is a large enough drive to backup most peoples data.

    We really needed to find a Harddrive for all the pictures we have taken of our son and our Disney trip. This was the best one that we found that was right for our price range.
