    I backup online two ways but still like a drive I can walk around with. Plugged it in and that's the last time i thought about it. Big and fast enough for my mid-sized home office system.

    I bought this to replace an older WD Passport model because I needed more capacity. I was surprised with the higher transfer speed. both drives are USB 3.0 but the new one is more than 2x faster. The only downside was looking for performance specs in the purchase process. I couldn't find specs like spindle speed or transfer rate on the website.
