Storage Capacity: 1000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
Storage Drive Type: HDD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
Interface(s): USB 3.0 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
good, inexpensive drive for basic backup
Drive is fast and easy to use; small size is a real plus
I got this drive for a mere $79 because I needed to store my movies somewhere besides on my laptop. I needed a drive that would work with my Roku and WD has always been dependable. I have 4 of these now in various sizes, and I wouldn't go with anything else. Cost effective, dependable and EXTREMELY fast on USB 3.0.
Using three of these disks to provide off-site backup for three of our Macs. They were easy to setup for TimeMachine I just had to reformat them for a Mac. I have had no issues with them.
