    Good value for the money. I took one star off for the housing. It's very smooth which means it's easy to slip out of your hands, plus there are no rubber "feet" which would stabilize it when placed on a desk. Also, why wasn't a storage case included? All other WD portable drives I have purchased prior to this one included a storage case....
