Needed an external hard drive for my larger Dell Inspiron 15 computer. just like my smaller Dell travel computer. I needed some extra space.

This was a great solution for a 2nd affordable backup. Working on a short film and money was high, but we needed more backups and this was a great solution.

I actually have two Hard Drives by Western Digital… a 1TB and a 5TB. As a hobbyist, I keep the 1TB in my camera case to download files while on road trips, and the 5TB as a backup storage for my 2021 and 2022 photos. It’s been a handy solution to protect my files!

I bought this on the July Fourth sale from B&H. It is a 2TB external drive that works fast, is compact and works great. This unit is smaller than a 500GB drive I bought a few years ago.

Perfect size storage wise and physically. I needed a drive for an archive backup. It’s a great value for that.

I’ve been using WD drives for years and they are reliable and relativity inexpensive. This drive will be to back up 2 other smaller drives for my photo library safe-keeping.

It is working to back up my laptop which has a 500GB internal drive. So this is good enough for that. I use it for my Macbook so I had to format the drive into the MacBook format which was straight forward process after using a quick google search for the instructions.

Attached this to a Channel Master DVR+ where it records, playsback programming and stores other data. Not noticing the lag and playback buffering from previous drive. Easy to install, literally plug and play.

This is one handy little unit, and it is real! This is the 3rd external Hard Drive (4.5X3x0.50) weighs maybe 4oz. I like it and here in a moment, I am going to give it top marks. I said this unit was real, because it is the 3rd unit I ordered. The first 2 ended up being a plastic box, with a piece of metal in them. Sad!! This one is real, and works just fine. It is quick too. I plan to order a 4GB, as soon as I can come up with the money, just to see how fast it is. The little on is as fast as a ct with a burr up its … Thank you Harold
