    I bought this to replace a portable hard drive that isn't as accessible as it used to be. I found that transferring data was very easy and the speed is very good.

    Simple. Gets the job done. It does feel like you have to be super careful to not bump it or hit it. So be sure to store it somewhere REALLY safe. Price was just okay.

    This drive I use to back up several other smaller backup drives. Provides more backup safety, peace of mind. You can not have to much backups.

    Works as advertised but I did not install the WD software (not needed) so I cant speak to that. Transfer rates seem to be slow but overall the value is great

    This is the worst Western Digital I've bought,

    Of all the Western Digital drives I've bought over 14 years, which I still use today, and never fail, this is the worst external hard drive - because of that stupid file called "System Volume Info". You can't get rid of that file unless you go into CMD admin and Clean and Format the drive. After that process, I ended up just using this external hard drive just for file and video storage for my Windows 7 Ultimate computers and Windows 10 Pro computers. I never turn stuff, I just never buy the Brand Name product again.
