There is always room for a fast and trouble free smaller sized external hard drive. I have six of these and love them...the most useful size available for fast and effortless usage...in a practical size. Get one, and you'll never look back.

Have had several of these and have not one failure.We use these at my job too. But, you must be very careful with them. NO dropping or bumping. If there is a bad point on these, it might be they are more fragile than some of the heavier desktop models. I keep mine stored in the boxes they came in.

This is my first portable drive. It is so sleek and easy to use. Came in very handy this week when I had to format my hard drive and re-install everything! Definitely recommend it.

I looked for a backup 1TB drive to use on my desktop and laptop. I wanted only a basic unit without the auto backup option that so many manufactures have gone with. Our computers software has backup already in their programs. Installed in seconds and backed up our computer that took 25minutes.

This dinky little unit sits alongside my desktop permanently connected to the USB 3.0 downstream and used as my backup storage. Just plug it in, and it's ready to go with no faffing about with drivers on disk. Truly 'plug n' play'.

WD is a name brand with a good reputation for quality. At the price offered by rakuten.com, this portable hard drive is a great deal. Whether a first time buyer of hard drives, or a long time user, this hard drive is a great product from a trusted company.

Plugged in and worked straight away. Very quite in use, amazingly fast in operation. I am getting speeds 10-12 times faster than my old USB drive. Managed 150 Gb of back ups in 40-45 minutes. Lead is a little short, could do with a 3 foot cable would be only suggestion.

I use this hard drive as my time machine to backup both my macbooks, works great, some troubleshooting required to set up with my newest macbook (2017 model) but I found instructions easily enough online

Happy with my purchase as i would of had to travel 2 hours to get it so much easier to have a delivered

This little power house has plenty of storage for making movies, storing photo's or any other large files! The casing is pretty good and compact, easy to pack in whatever you may use to carry things.
