    Bought it as a backup drive and it works for that. Good price for a fast portable 4TB drive.

    Like all Western Digital (WD) products, that I've purchased, setup is easy and it works with existing backup Software (WD).

    This is the worst Western Digital I've bought,

    Of all the Western Digital drives I've bought over 14 years, which I still use today, and never fail, this is the worst external hard drive - because of that stupid file called "System Volume Info". You can't get rid of that file unless you go into CMD admin and Clean and Format the drive. After that process, I ended up just using this external hard drive just for file and video storage for my Windows 7 Ultimate computers and Windows 10 Pro computers. I never turn stuff, I just never buy the Brand Name product again.

    So far, so good. Nothing else to report. I really wanted an SSD (4stars) but since I don't plan to access this drive much it'll work.

    Like the choice of different colors because at a glance I can tell to which computer they were assigned. Good value.
