    Works great. I've had three different generations of this external hard drive. Fast, small, and lots of colors if you need to get one for your girlfriend's Xbox, win win.

    Large hard drive. I like the light blue color so it is not mistaken for another external hard drive that are mostly black.

    I use multiple portable HD's for backup. This drive was a replacement for a drive that was stolen. I found it easy to encrypt and faster than expected to which to write.

    Although I had trouble setting it up and figuring out how to use it, once that got ironed out I am very happy with this product. I would give it two stars for ease of setting up, but 5 stars for backup storage ability.

    Works well. A good drive at a reasonable price. Doesn't seem to generate as much heat as the older models did.

    So far, so good. I've had good success with WD in the past, and this seems to be working well. Definitely better than Seagate (had three of those fail).
