    Drive works like a charm. Bought this one to assure I had plenty of storage space. Only reason for the 4-star review is because the backup software on the drive doesn't work due to license expired and I had to use one off the Internet.

    Every couple of years, I purchase another external hard drive to be certain that my documents are safely stored. The storage space continues to inflate and prices continue to fall. This year, I scrutinized over the Passport and Elements. There are no discernible difference. Purchase the one with the better price.

    This is a good little hard drive. Easily transports and has lots of space. My only issue is that it was very cumbersome to set up on my mac. I had to go through and fix a bunch of settings and download another program in order to use this. I don't know why but it took 25 minutes to figure it all out. It works now but wow the hoops to jump through. What happened to plug and play?

    I purchased this for my not so tech savvy fiancee. She takes a lot of pics with her phone plus she's in school for fashion. She uses Google drive for both and 15GB just isn't enough for her photos alone. She uses this to transfer her school files from Google Drive and to keep her internal hard drive free on her laptop.

    This is much easier to use than I thought although I spent a lot on time on You Tube looking for some guidance that the sales clerk didn't or couldn't provide. Copying my files went lightening fast and copying them into my new laptop was just as easy and fast. I was shocked at how easy it was.

    I have had 3 WD hard drives over the last 25 years. The first one was outstanding, it did its job for 25 years. I purchased a second in 2010 to go with a laptop. It failed to function after 3 months and was returned for a full refund. This third one was to replace the 25 year old that finally died. It never function properly and now has been returned after 1 month.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
