    This was the external hard drive that Geek Squad utilized to back up all my fathers pc files after fearing they would all be corrupt or worse lost. As mentioned in my other review in regards to Geek Squads service, they are quick and knowledgeable in what needs to be done, and were able to save my fathers files after all. In fact they set it up so that it periodically backs-up to this external HD to avoid future problems. Western Digital is a leading brand in computer hard drives and we are confident it will securely protect my fathers files for years to come.

    It’s a plastic housing which isn’t too bad, but don’t expect it to hold up well to a fall. Especially with the spinning discs inside. But at the price and storage it’s an excellent backup device or for video editing and storing arvhives
