    First, the size is just too good. It fits into the palm easily. Next, transferring files from the computer to this device was super fast beyond my expectation.

    Great backup storage solution

    I've had previous experience with two other Western Digital external drives so when the time came to acquire an external storage device for my Macbook Pro, I jumped at the chance to grab another Western Digital drive based upon my prior experiences with their drives. Also don't be concerned that the drive comes formatted for Windows - simply connect this to any Mac and launch Disk Utility to reformat it to Apple's file system. My Mac's internal drive is 1 TB so I decided to grab a drive with double the storage space for extra room. Additionally, this drive has a metal shell (instead of the normal flimsy plastic) and also has USB-C interface (for slighly faster read/write speeds). Whether you're looking for extra storage for an existing system or you need a dedicated drive for backups, this Western Digital drive is a great choice. Pick one up today - you won't be disappointed!

    Pretty good drive for extra storage. I use it for storing extra video footage for work. It has a usb C cord and adapter to USB-A. It seems fast enough but can get warm during huge file transfers.

    Used the WD external drives as part of my RAID1 raspberry pi NAS build. Work great. Fast enough. Never had a problem. I have two.

    Got this for my MIL to put photos and videos on there and off her phone. Good for that stuff. Complicated to start, have to download another app that has access to other features but was hoping for the simpler process they had 8 years ago when I got mine. Either way, decent product but expect to put work in at first

    This is second WD ULTRA I have purchased. Currently have the 2 TB version. Installed it with no effort, on lines in a matter of minutes. Currently have backup with no problems. I might also add I had no problems with my first WD and I have no reason to think I will have any problems with my latest WD Ultra.

    Large amount of storage, and helpful that it comes with an adapter for USB ports. Not as sturdy feeling as I’d hoped, but so far has worked sufficiently.
