WD 2TB USB 3.0 External Hard Drive
This hard drive was an excellent price. It is working well, and is simple to use. I have not tried to use any of the special features, as I'm just using it as a backup drive for now.

WD My Book Essential 1TB USB 3.0 External HD Review.
Seems very easy to set up - It automatically loads drivers and software in about 20 seconds per machine - I installed on 3 laptops and 2 desktops no problems. Thereafter works well so far for large back ups and is particularly fast if you've got a computer with a 3.0 USB port.

Fast, very quiet and flexible.
I have a Mac Mini running iTunes that accesses films stored on this NAS. This in turn is available to my Apple TV. The whole arrangement works very well indeed.<br /><br />I also use the NAS to store all my photos and other assorted data.
Pros:
- Fast
- Quiet
- Simple setup
Cons:
- None

A Great Addition To Our System
This is an upgrade actually. We were using a 500mb Western Digital and wanted more space so we got this 1tb external. One thing to note: This newer model has an always-on mentality in that the software is always wanting the thing to be connected.

This a great product. very fast and just love it. the size is so big you'll never run out of space. I was able to d/l everything I had and only use 600 mb great I have a lot of space left and will be using this for many years without worrying about running out of space.

Amazing Amount of Storage
Just bought this drive last week from Staples (last one too, seems they're going out of stock), and so far, I have no complaints whatsoever. I was able to transfer everything from my 2 TB hard drive to this one with no errors, and the drive is very fast if I have it plugged into a USB 3.0 port.
Pros:
- Easy To Install
- Fast
- Highly Compatible
- Quiet
- Reliable
Cons:
- None yet

Works great
This external hard drive was easy to install (just plug and play) and I thought it was a great value. The drive comes with some pre-loaded software to help you do things, but I just plugged it in and started backing up my files. Would recommend this product.

Huge amounts of storage
The My Book offers huge amounts of storage. I purchased to provide a simple backup drive for my home computer - it's unobtrusive and simple to set up.
