    Have an external drive set-up for everyone to back-up their lap top, but the wife and kids never use it. Purchased this one for the wife, hopefully she uses it to keep her computer backed up. If not, it will eventually crash, I will go to install a new drive and her stuff will all be gone.

    Used it right out of the box. Mine is 2 TB and I thought it would be overkill. Then my pc started to fail. I backed the entire 500gb of data (years of photos and movies). Just in time! This drive is great. Now I am using it for everything and leaving very little on new PC''s drive.

    Decent Harddrive

    So far this unit is performing as desired. It seemed a little bulky at first but you get past that given its storage capacity. I bought this to replace 2 500GB drives I was using. It doesn't get too hot, doesn't require an outside power source, and I don't see any lag in loading times. For the money it is a great little drive. I have not had it long enough to speak about life longevity and for that reason alone I cannot give it a 5 star rating (yet).

    I have always depended on WD portable drives for my storage needs, and will continue to do so. I bought this on sale for a great price, and use it to store larger files such as high quality photos and videos. The drive provides quick access to files. I just wish it came with a carrying case!

    This little thing has all my important docs, lots of movies and series stored. I usually pair them with my home tv and often watch them. This is kept plugged in through USB on my tv and it's been almost 2 years now and have no complain what so ever. Go get it.

    This was just what we needed to store our music. It is especially helpful since we transfer music back and forth between multiple devices and even multiple locations. It was super simple to set up and it is very simple to use.

    I used to use WD My Book AV for DISH Network, but Western Digital seems to have end production of them. The WD My Passport Ultra 2TB has been my replacement for the outdated My Book AV. No issues, works just as seamless.
