    Pros: I use this drive for backups once a week or so and it seems reliable so far. Back when external enclosures had their own power supplies, I had one drive go bad. Since they’re all USB powered I haven’t had any problems. I’m a pretty low impact user. I leave this drive at home. Cons: Didn’t provide me with any winning lottery numbers.

    Pros: -Good price -Brand reputation Cons: -Housing is fragile Overall Review: I have a WD black in my desktop, and I’m impressed by the brand. Great external drive for my purposes. Got it, opened the box, plugged it in, and backed up my files. I have 2 external HDDs for redundancy; this has saved my bum before! I got this to replace a very old Toshiba from 2015. That drive made me very uncomfortable with new and unusual access delays and the like. It was time for it to go, 5 years was plenty…

    Pros: Small. Lightweight. Single power/data connection. Large capacity. Cons: None. Overall Review: No excitement here. I selected it from Newegg’s web site. I placed the order and paid for it. They packaged and shipped it. I received it and unpacked it. I plugged it in and it worked. From start to finish, it was a boring text book experience. If you want excitement, take up hang gliding.

  5. Shannon O.

    Pros: Tons of storage Quick transfer speeds Convenient size Reputable company Cons: A tad pricey Overall Review: With the cable out of the drive this is about the size of a man’s wallet, which makes it very portable. This drive offers plenty of space for backing things up safely, or transferring from one device to another. Great buy!

  6. David F.

    Pros: Light weight/low power Quite Reasonably fast Cons: None Overall Review: I have a 7 year-old WD Passport running as a SAMBA file server. I needed to upgrade the server hardware and wanted a bit more storage space, but mostly, wanted to do a preemptive replacement before the old HDD showed any signs of end-of-life. I connected this new one to the USB 3.0 port on a laptop-turned-server via a USB 3.0 hub. I do get bursts of USB 3.0 speeds as expected so I’m not at all disappointed with the…

    Pros: It’s a fast HD and quite. There’s a LED indicating the activity, but it’s located in the back (that doesn’t make sense). I didn’t run any technical test, but I transferred about 1.1Tb and it did really fast. I would recommend. Cons: The LED that indicates activity is located on the back. Not enough to drop an egg, but it’s seems awkward. Overall Review: Nice HD, quite and fast. Definitely recommend it.

    Overall Review: I needed to expand my storage capacity for my Xbox console. This did the trick and disk speed is as expected. Did the trick and didn’t break the bank… two thumbs up!
