    Serves its purpose. Bought this guy so I could remove all of my pictures from the internet and close social network pages. It has more than enough space to do that and now I don’t have to worry about losing decades of photos

    Been using WD brand for years. These are great for multiple purposes. Many of the newer laptop/tablets have smaller drives so we use these for backup, transport, and additional storage.

    Since it is made by Western Digital, it works like a charm. Easy to use backup and security software helps secure my content. A 3-year warrantee from a great company give me peace of mind. I couldn't ask for more.
