    This is the second one I have purchased. I use it exclusively for my recording studio files. It does a nice job at quickly backing up and also accessing recording files on the fly.

    Bought this during Covid-19 and my Best Buy store in Tulsa made it easy to do. My wifes computer had been operating different lately and was concerned that it may crash. Wanted to be sure all her data was backed up and ready to load on a new computer if necessary.

    I initially backed up files from my HP. When I went to use it for my back up for my Mac it had to be erased. It has been giving me some error messages ever since and at times my Mac doesn’t want to recognize it. The device is built well and transfer rate is fast when it is working. I have other devices like this that have worked great. I’m not sure if this is just a fluke.

    Use this for external backup of the PC. Ran out of space on the 2TB unit and upgraded to this one. Plug it in, copy files to it and done. It has a much faster transfer rate than I expected, so that was a plus.

    WD has quite a few different hard drives for storage. I prefer using this My Passport range as it has encryption. You can set a long password so that no-one has access to your data or information.
