    I am legally blind I needed to have The geek squad bifurcate my hard drive so that it ran windows in addition to the native apple. Not only did they do that but they’re installed jaws and zoom text software, in addition to, acrobat, reader and Microsoft word. At all Times, the Geek Squad staff were attentive, considerate, and extremely patient. Highly recommended! unparalleled service.

    I don't know what we do with all our hard drives. I like WD HDs. This is a bigger one (4TB). We load them up with music, then buy some more. This is a good drive.

    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).
