Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between these new Easystore models and the My Book/Passport models. The regular price for these is more than the MB/PP yet these look like the previous generation of the MB/PP. What is the difference and which would be better?
Asked by Confused.
- A:Answer I asked the manufacturer the same question with regards to the portable models. Their answer was that the Easystore does not have encryption and password protections, whereas the My Passports do; and has a 2 year warranty.

Q: QuestionI'm not able to drag and drop files from one hard drive into the easystore drive. I'm on a MAC using the latest OS. Insight into this matter is much appreciated. Thanks.
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Maybe a silly question, but did you format the drive as Mac journaled extended or leave as NTFS. If NTFS then you will need something like Tuxera NTFS in order to transfer files.

Q: QuestionWill this work on USB 2.0? Not sure if I have any 3.0 USBs I have one or two WD external drives in my junk drawer that stopped working years ago , so not sure how well another WD drive would hold up. Anyone had troubles with this one failing?
Asked by Robinhood.
- A:Answer Hello Robinhood, yes it will work fine with USB 2.0 ports (albeit a wee slower but the average person using older tech wouldn't notice the difference anyways). I actually have it hooked up to an older micro-desktop that I've tricked out to serve as a backup and tertiary storage hub and no problems with speed upon access or writing files. Re: WD reliability, the HD playing field amongst the brands has become fairly level over the past few years. If you read up you will find the different brands all source from the same 3 manufacturers. All have chances to fail and unless you want to put out $$$ for tippy top of the line, just make sure you keep the firmware updated, run occasional diagnostics, and keep 2 *different* units as backup. (Never buy 2 HDs from same brand at same time - you want different batches, different manufactured times, so as to avoid 2 lemons from same batch). Hope this helps :)

Q: QuestionHi! Using the WD easystore on my ps4. Is it ok to just let it plugged all the time or should I unplug it from the console when the console is off? Or anything else?

Q: QuestionIs this capable of simply dragging and dropping certain files (photos & videos) into it? If yes, how?
Asked by Nick.
- A:Answer Like any other drive it will show up as a different drive letter in windows and a different drive name in mac. Just open a window to that drive and drag and drop files into it.

Q: QuestionCan this be hooked up to an Arlo Pro base station and used as continous local storage, and if the base station is hooked up to WiFi/router can the drive be accessed remotely to view files?
Asked by Mandam8692.
- A:Answer I have never used a Arlo Pro base so I am not sure about that, but I currently use it over Wi-Fi to view thousands of movies and it works perfectly. I connected it directly to the router. I can also use it for storage if I need to via the network. Leo
