    This product is easy to set up, however, it get's complicated at the moment of synchronizing it with the computer as automatically creates a path of files and is hard to find where your stuff went instead of allowing you to set the path and the folder where you want to move your stuff.

    not the sexiest device but like all WD drives this one has been durable and I travel with it a lot so it gets bounced around quite a bit. haven't had a failure yet. Ii do like the included WD software suite, works great as a back-up. would be 5-stars if WD included an option for cloud back-up too (free with minimal storage and pay for more).

    I needed a hard drive large enough to store my digital photographs. I only use Western Digital because of their reliability and durability. I can't afford to have an external hard drive fail on me. I have quite a few of these and would not use any other brand.

    If you have a smart tv and want to store videos on a external had to play directly on the TV make sure you format it to MBR NTFS which is limited to a 2TB. Also his hd is powered by the USB port. No complaints so for.
