    Works well. Fast but not true consist USB3.0 speeds, at least for me. Recommend if you need a good backup solution.

    Easy to transfer data and quickly. Since new laptops do not come with cd/dvd drive, needed this to transfer music.

    I have had many a WD passport and this passport did not function as I felt it should. I copied a total other external drive and it did not copy clean. I am still looking for pictures that did not transfer. Also when looking at many pictures the drive could not keep up and therefor I had wait until the next day for it to finally make all the changes.

    This eliminates paying the phone company every month for back-up on my computer. This will do just fine.
