    I purchased this external hard drive as an additional method to store data. I do so much on my computer and want instant access to data when I leave home. I can take it with me wherever I go. I have always trusted WD products. You can't go wrong with them.

    Its good. Quiet. Best not to have it connected all the time or will run continuously. Like the password feature. Next time will by a solid state as you can damage data from the unit moving or dropping while writing data Password software could be FAR better so lowered star for ease of use
