WD 3TB My Book Desktop USB 3.0 External Hard Drive

Excellent ext drive with security
WD drives have worked well for me in the past, and after about a month, this model is performing well. The additional security feature is a big plus.

Unreliable for me
It takes forever to mount. The connection drops resulting in lost work. It is not the solution for my work flow. Im in the process of replacing it.

Great
Fast and reliable. In the remote chance that their drive fails the warranty from Western Digital is superb. Always use more than one backup drive.

nice
these are much better than the 2tb drive they put out, the ones that were bus powered. anything over 1tb had better have external power supply

Going to try it again

Fast. Great Price. Super Size.
I like the Size and Prices of B&H Products, and this 8TB doesn't disappoint. Happy all round. A little noisy when operating it, though.

Good but making weird noise
Workimg good so far, but sometimes it makes weird noises, and you can feel its vibration on the desk. A little annoying for my taste.

It does what it's supposed to do
I use this hard drive to backup my pictures and data. It easily mounts on my Windows 10 computer at home and is easy to use.

Can't go wrong with WD
I currently have 4 WD external hard drives and they all work great. Easy to use and set up, just plug it in and you're set.

Most economical way to stuff NAS with WD RED drives
Outstanding! It took 5 minutes to harvest the drive from it.WD100EZAZ-11TDBA0 is what inside. Works fine with Synology 918+

Excellent, low cost backup drive
Western Digital drives just work. As a Mac user, I just reformat and plug it in. You cant beat the simplicity and price.

Stopped working after 4 months
I can no longer access my files, and everytime I try it freezes my computer and I have to restart. Horrible purchase

OK
For the price, it's great, I guess. The only negative thing is it goes to sleep so often and takes time to wake up.

Good for desktop backup
Good for desktop backup, solid feel and build. I prefer Thunderbolt for my MAC but the price is lower for USB 3.0

Works well, no complaints
I use 2 of these hard drives to make bootable clones of my MacBook and iMac. So far so good. Time will tell.
