    Nothing to complain about. Easy plug and play set up. Transfer rate for photos was excellent. I was able to transfer roughly 100GB of photos in 3 or 4 minutes.

    I needed an external hard drive to backup all my data before switching to a new laptop. Worked ifne for the backup and data transfer. Hope to use it periodically for backups of my critical data. Speed and ease of use were fine.

    Super easy setup. Using it as a system backup but plenty of space for a second hard drive or photo storage. Nicely built, quiet and easily transportable.

    This is my third WD external drive. Absolutely necessary for sensitive data storage. Genealogy research is irreplaceable. Twenty five years can’t be stored on unreliable devices.

    I had a tune up on my computer. Geek Squad recommended I needed back for my files. The associate helping me went into the stock room to find this item. Good price, easy to back up files. Solves the problem.

    Needed to back up my laptop and went with another WD hard drive. Been using them for years and they definitely have been reliable. USB 3.0 speeds up back up times and I am very pleased with the performance.

    I bought this for a class and it works very well. You do have to set up the software that comes with this to work. So beware of that. If you want something that works out of the box, then consider something else.

    Great external drive that does everything I need it to. It’s fast, easy to use, and super easy to transport. If fits perfectly in a little pocket in my work bag and pretty much with me everywhere I bring my laptop.
