    Perfect so far. This replaced an older, smaller capacity WD drive. It was easy to order, fairly priced, and no problems picking it up. Just plugged it in and it worked as expected. We now have greatly expanded on line storage.

    I was looking for a portable storage device at a good price to save the contents of three old laptops prior to recycling them. This had the space at a very good price and a good warranty. It worked with absolutely no problems and now ten years of files are safe and organized.

    This has been an excellent purchase. I’ve waited to do a review simply to see if it had a failure. It’s ridden in my back pack to work and to recreation. It holds my 3D print files. Outstanding stability
