    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.

    As title said, I cannot copy large hunk of files. I was trying to transfer files from my old phones to this external drive, but when ever I tried to copy a folder that has a lot of data (the folder was only 5GB in total) it estimated that it’ll take 40 mins to transfer and I always ran into an error midway. To bypass this problem, I had to copy a little data at a time. •The build quality is okay. •I can’t give a rating on speed because this is my first External Hard Drive. •It’s very easy to use. I’m just disappointed that I can’t transfer files larger than 5GB in one go. My fault for going the cheap route for something important. Next time I’ll go for SanDisk.

    I have had many of these external hard drives over the years - fewer as the storage capacity increases. They have never failed me and are easy to use.

    I bought this external portable hard drive to replace another one (they seem to be designed to need replacement at a period of around 5 years). It copies files quickly and is very easy to use. I've been please with it so far.
