Good solid portable drive, I expect to get a few years of life out of this as my Windows8 ToGo drive.

Small form factor; even for a 2.5 inch drive Fast; good sustained speeds for a platter drive Standard connections - no wonkey Chinese USB connector

None yet? Drive was open box and didn't have the software on the drive; but I never use it anyways

Got it in the festival sale and I am a happy satisfied customer. Has been working well and there have been no complaints till now. Ordering and delivery were smooth. Packaging was good.

I've always purchased WD hard drives , they simply do not compromise on quality and this drive is no exception Forget you maxtor and other cheaper drives, these really are tones to buy because nothing hurts more than losing a TB of data because you bought a cheap drive.

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'.

The product is great, as announced. I recommend it.

If you are going to buy a hard drive from Newegg (or the A-people - they're really bad, too), cross your fingers and pray it gets to you in one piece and - if you're really lucky - they might have someone working that day that has a clue about packaging hard drives!

Nice price; great drive when they work

They are sold and shipped by Newegg, the packaging disaster experts; Newegg loves to toss hard drives like this in a big box with hardly any packaging so they can bounce around and get damaged in shipping and you have to pay to send them back; Trust me, I know.

I wanted a WD external hard drive in order to watch my movies on my LG TV and this one works very well (70$ order 04/08). 4 days shipping, thank you NCIX !

- Design; - Performance; - Good Value for money

- The USB Cable seems a little bit fragile

I have a PS4 and needed more space on my hard drive. I bought this, and it was super easy to install. I watched a youtube video (didn't even finish the video because I figured it out myself) to install it, but if you're good with technology you could probably figure it out without any instructions...

Hard drive is sick!!!

First impressions The Western Digital brand is one that I have had some past experience with. I have bought a few of their hard drives and also had hard drives already fitted to laptops I have bought. I have had good and bad experiences, though the bad ones were due to the poor spec of old units.

Compact; prompt transfer of data; easy to use

Some may prefer a larger storage capacity
