    Excellent portable hard disk Easy to connect and use, not setup / configurtion. Best part of the deal is, "price match guarantee" by Best Buy.

    very easy to install. WD has a lot of great support software and utilities on their website and the portability is the main reason to purchase this Hard Drive

    Plenty of memory, quick and easy to use. Although definitely not as fast as a ssd but for what it is, it's pretty fast especially when plugged into a USB 3.0 slot.

    WD drives have shown high reliability which is critical for your backup data. Good performance and reliability measure up. Great device for the price.

    Great external hard drive

    This external hard drive does everything I needed for transferring files from an 11-year old PC computer to a brand new PC computer. I was pleased with how fast it transferred my files and it worked with both computers as the technology on my old computer didn't always function well. I appreciate the portable size as well. There is more to this external hard drive than I understand. It looks like there is some sort of cloud storage offered with it as well. At this time, I did not take advantage of the cloud storage because I already have a cloud storage system that I use and didn't want to have my documents, photos, videos, etc. in so many different places. I also did not install any additional software provided. The next best thing was it was on sale!

    Seagate was the other brand I use to own. WD and Lacie have been my go-to's for photography and film, and WD has never let me down with any type of failure *knock on wood*. USB3 is fairly quick, and I'm looking forward to the next iteration of USB4. For Mac users, Chronosync is a great tool to backup your drives, and WD works well.
