    This drive comes ready to run right out of the box. It has good utilities easily available and provides a terabyte of storage space. USB 3 makes it faster and easier for backups.

    Very quiet and compact. Gets a bit warm but doesn't appear to hinder the operation.

    Veterans of hard drive use will have no trouble with this, but as a hard drive newbie, I was unclear on what exactly to do with it. It's much simpler than I thought, but I had to experiment with it a bit before I understood how it worked. The USB cord is very short, but I consider that a plus, since I will have it right beside my computer at all times and, thus, will not have to deal with the tangly mess of a long cord.

    The last one froze up on me but I think it was user error. I really like the look and functionality of this one, and the online instructions helped me get two separate drives from one with ease.

    As far as external hard drives go, this seems to do the job. I always seem to like the WD Passport drives.

    External hard drives can come with the risk of failing after much use, but with the warranty this comes with, my anxiety of a failed investment is deferred. There isn't much unique properties an external hard drive can have compared to other options, but WD has always been a trusted brand for me, so in summary all I can say is the design influenced my decision between other options and no problems have occurred to this point, nor do I expect it to.
