    I bought this item for my son to use while away in school. He hasn't complained about it and has said that he was glad that we bought it. It is working great!

    It's an external hard drive, not much to it. This one is compact, sets up quickly and easily and so far I have no issues with it. The different colors are helpful in differentiating it from other external hard drives. If you need one buy this one.

    The WD portable hard drive stands out with a red case, so it looks good. USB 3.0 and downward compatible make it fast and easy to use. The price for 2TB was outstanding.
