  • Great Drive until it lost everything

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I had the drive for storage of football videos that I had taken and edited for several youth teams. The drive was all of a sudden unreadable, for no reason. I lost everything. The quote from WD to retrieve the information was $1300. That is the last product I buy from WD.
