    Worked beautifully! I needed this after my computer was hacked and the technician came and installed it and in no time my computer was up and running.

    Western Digital has been a favorite of mine for years. This model works great and is very easy to use. Simply plug and play. It can store millions of pictures or hold an entire backup.

    Bought 2 of these for my nieces' Macs. They had no problem setting them up and moving their data. They are starting college and needed more storage than that available on the small HD on Macs.

    Love how compact yet powerful this little device is. Wanted something that I could easily "grab and go" in case of an emergency. This external drive provides that peace of mind.

    Got this to replace a failed external drive used for Time Machine. The WD drive has been reliable and takes up less space than the previous drive. Very satisfied.

    I love the newer slimmer form-factor. Everything was "plug and play" with my Mac and I know Western Digital stands behind their disk drives.
