Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Save on External Hard Disk Drives
Backed up several other external drives with at leady another 1TB for one. Added literally thousands of more scans using Scansnap scanner...didn't phase this thing. Fast, do far reliable. Last 500GB WD has lasted 12 years, or 3-4x its life expectancy. Have had other brands fail in less than 3 years. Will buy 2 more. One to switch out at least every two weeks, one for deep storage, long-term in case of Ransomware. Have already been hit once 2 years ago. Back your stuff up people, don't open strange emails or links. Get serious Malware protection!!!

Product was DOA. Not recognized when connected to several different computers and several different USB ports. Vendor gave a prompt refund after product was returned. The product shown in picture did not match the product received. It was much smaller and lighter. I have three of the previous versions of this model and have had no problem with them. I would be leery of buying this particular model as it seems very fragile. Very light and no rubber feet to keep it stationary on a smooth surface. Appears to be very cheaply constructed.

Tough review. The WD device is going to save my particular butt. I bought this because it was cheap. Low on cash, high on Startup Disk problems. Needed 4 TB size to backup the internal Drive in i7 Mac. Backed up my data to reformat drive and start over. Everything worked out. Used black tape to put little pressure on USB 3 connector as it was a little faulty. I knew that when I bought it. Bottom line, saved my butt.

This product is just amazing and it has 4TB of memory it to be exact it comes with a stock storage of 3.64TB of memory still it’s amazing. I just liberated most of my computers storage into the hard drive and it didn’t even made a 1/10 of the actual storage. It has its original box and papers and 3.0 transfer cable. The product it’s just perfect but the way the seller sent it wasn’t meant for it. Normally products of that standard are packed inside a box with a label saying delicate. But it came in a Manila envelope. Sure for the price I can’t ask more. Aside from that I’m satisfied with the product and probably will by again from this seller.

Couldn't get PCs to read drive - Not sure why but my initial online searches brought up nothing on this, but finally I found the WD site's support software, named WD Drive Utilities for Windows. Clicked Erase and boom, finally my Win7 tower and Win10 laptop could read it. Another way is to use Win10's built in features, explained explained in WD's article "How to format a WD hard drive to exFAT or FAT32 file system". Drive works well.
