Title: Rubbish cable
Review: For real world use I found this gave me transfer speeds of around 25Mb/sThe usb C cable and adapter are super cheap and bulky connectors, add a decent quality cable onto your order. However these are only free extras so I haven’t deducted any stars

Title: Not impressed
Review: Purchased this to use with the advertised backup and security features. The drive, however, only comes with very basic WD Discovery software requiring you to install & use it to download the separate WD backup & security apps. Unfortunately, as has happened to other reviewers, despite uninstalls & reinstalls, the software would not connect online instead displaying an error message saying to try again later. Could not contact WD, phone number for their UK store on the webpage is unobtainable. Eventually found in support pages a link for WD Discovery Full Version, which includes all the apps. Problem solved, but would make sense if WD bundled this with the outgoing hard drives. Then, after wondering why the first backup I created took up so much space, discovered that the backup software maintains a second copy of the backup for data recovery purposes . So for example, backing up 500gbs of data would need a 2 Tb hard drive (i.e twice the size of the data plus a bit to play with). This should be mentioned in the Amazon product listing so that the correct drive can be purchased. Data transfer speed not that great either. Not impressed.

Title: Storage is fine, the software does not work
Review: Storage capacity is fine but the software that is supposed to make backing up easy cannot be installed on my computer. It stops at 18% and cannot be closed, I have to use Task Manager to close it. (Running Windows 7 32-bit.) Tech Support was keen to help but first they referred me to a number of irrelevant articles, as a last troubleshooting step they suggested I delete all data in the Roaming folder, which sounds a bit strange and risky, and ultimately they were not able to help. I can still use the hard drive for storage in the old copying+pasting way but it does feel like a waste of money. This is supposed to be a brand-new product. Very disappointed.

Review: Assolutamente ottimo sia in estetica che in prestazioni, lo uso come disco di backup grazie al software che gestisce tutto in maniera automatica, la velocità di scrittura effettiva si attesta sui 120/140 mb/s, molto buona per un hdd.

Review: Nothing to dislike. I’ve used an older model “My Passport” but after 5 years, it plays up sometimes. But it still works okay. No real worries.But to be safe and as an added backup, I decided to purchase another external drive – went for My Passport again. I’m no tech-geek – therefore sorry for not listing tech stuff.
