I have been an avid Western Digital (WD) enthusiast/purchaser for many years, but lately I have had unsatisfactory results from their products. This HD in particular quit working around 9-10 months of very limited use. It does not initialize anymore and to retrieve the data, a company wants to charge upwards of $1250 just for the beginning of the process, this company was recommended by WD. I am told, if purchased through WD, there is an option to purchase a data recovery plan with them, but not sure how good that would be. I think that because of the limited use and the short amount of time owned, WD or Best Buy should step up to provide data recovery and to replace with a new one at the very least, as this is still under warranty. I have been having better luck with Seagate, so I think I will be transferring over to them after years of dedicated loyalty to WD.

Returned. No fault of the product. Cannot review. Bought it to increase the memory on my laptop but could not download the program bc there was not enough memory on the laptop. T ime for a new laptop.

Excellent item love the product...................

Perfect product. software that comes with it is easy to use and the product is resilient.

Small form factor and speed are predicates to an external hard drive. This drive meets my plug and play expectations.

Working great so far, before this bought easystore 5tb and returned it as that was making lot of clicking sound and got corrupted

WD - My Passport 5TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive with Hardware Encryption (Latest Model) - Black good value happy with it

i you need it in electronics - best buy has it.peroid

I’m using this for my MacBook. Works very good. Speed is also okay.

I was saving my previous files before resetting my laptop system.

I have bought almost every variety of 1 TB back up drives. Can hardly tell the difference

I'm hoping this one works better as my last one crapped out after a power outage even though it was connected to a surge protector. so far so good on this one. will hopefully work for years to come.

I own several external hard drives for backup purposes. This is one of my favorites for speed and affordability. Works well.

No issues with the hard drive. Set up and getting the password protection was super simple
