Bought for a backup drive to get rid of pics/vidoes off hard drive. Works as expected without any issues to this point.

I like this drive because it is very quiet. I have only been using it for a few months but putting a lot on it at once. So far so good! I'm satisfied with WD overall.

So easy to use out of the box. It's easy to store because of its compact size. If I had had one negative thing to say it would be about the ac power cord. There are other external hard drives without a power cord then connect via USB directly to your computer. Overall, very happy with my purchase.

This is the fourth or fifth external WD hard drive I have purchased for the office and home. The drive is incredibly simple to install, which is why I keep coming back to WD. As a designer wanting to back up critical files, I have found WD hard drives to be stable and reliable, and have lasted.
