    It's great to see hard drives come such a long way. Now we can store even more space at a good GB to $ ratio.

    8TB seems like a lot of memory, but we are using most of it already. This harddrive has functioned flawlessly

  • Decent Replacement for WD Smartware Software

    This WD drive with WD Backup software is a good replacement for the WD Smartware software backup. It works mostly the same way except it's one downfall is that it can't do continuous file backup/copying. The closest thing is for it to backup/copy once every hour. Continuous is better for many situations, especially if you need to disconnect the drive for any reason. I'm happy with the external drive and the capacity.
