Review: Good System, Good Value - My Setup: HP Pavillion 17t, 6th Gen Skylake Core i5, 7200 RPM HDD, 16GB RAM, USB 3.0, Win 10. My Review: I’ve been using a 3TB Western Digital MyBook for about two weeks now and feel like I have a pretty good handle on it. Bottom line is that I like both the hardware and software. First the trivial: It’s really pretty; all glossy black with rounded corners and a blue power/activity LED that perfectly matches my backlit keyboard. Second: It works pretty well. Plug in the power supply and USB cable, then set it next to your PC. Cooling is by convection, so it’s quiet if not completely silent. Software is already on the drive and configuration is straightforward. I’m a believer in WD storage so that’s all good, and there are two well designed apps to run things. Things like diagnostics, a sleep timer and an erase disk feature. WD Smartware lets you define the source and target (you can backup to non-WD internal/external drives and the cloud as well), plus an advanced setting for geeks. There is a file backup option, and you can define the save frequency from continuous to monthly, plus enable or disable your plan. Retrieve lets you choose to restore to the original location or a designated folder. Software can be updated either automatically or manually. My initial backup was about 115GB and took just under 40 minutes. With all the space available, I also use File Explorer to drag and drop folders like Pictures, Documents, etc. I’ve even tried working from it directly, in effect using it as my primary drive, without delays or other issues. BTW: It’s smart enough to sleep when my PC sleeps and shuts down with Hibernate or Power Off. The website is extensive, and as it turned out, really useful. After a few days of smooth sailing, I killed the unit by trying to partition it into separate volumes. From dead in the water, I downloaded what I needed to wipe the disk (no, not with a cloth), reinstall the software, and got up and running within a few hours. All in all, this is a very satisfying package that I confidently recommend… especially since I don’t fully trust either iDrive or OneDrive.
Review: Nice Drives no problems thus far - I now have two of the 3 TB drives and one of the 4 TB drives (I've had the 4 TB drive for a little over a year now). I have not had any issues with any of them. I have an external drive that is a bit faster, but for the price point these are good drives and hard to beat. I can generally maintain 105+ MB/sec write speed over the USB 3.0. For approximately $50 more I could have gotten an external drive that is significantly faster, but for writing once then reading as necessary these drive fit what I need them to do without my feeling that the writing time is excessive even when transferring fairly large files. Note: If you are using Windows, then you must go to the device manager and apply the setting for this drive to where it is set for better performance in order to get maximum Write speeds. There is also an option to turn off the power saver mode to keep it from constantly having to start back up between writes if there is going to be significant time between writes, and if you are more interested in speed than power consumption and possible drive wear. If you don't do those things, then you will not get the best write/read performance due to the drive powering up at the start of the read/write and/or Windows treating the drive as a USB quick release drive. Both of these settings change how quickly files will be written to the drive but for different reasons. As always, how you choose to apply these settings are up to you as the user. Personally, I attach these drives to one computer and rarely move them afterwards. So, I have no need of being able to unplug them from the system without using the windows disconnect USB device option first. I'll take that extra step on the odd occasion when I might need to move one of the drives for the added speed the rest of the time. I turn off the energy saver because I don't like waiting 10 sec or more for the drive to start writing after I try to move something there. I don't worry as much about extra wear from it being on as I get tired of the wait. That is how I like to use them. You should do what works best for you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When the "Cloud" falls...
*by T***D on March 5, 2016*

I have used Western-Digital HD's (Hard-Drives) since the days of DOS and found them to be well-made, reliable and always dependable. So, the addition to my computer of a pair of “My Book” 3-TERABYTE external drives was a no-brainer. The problem with today's “cloud” computing are: (1) it cost the user fees to use; (2) the user will be out-of-luck if their PRIMARY connection device (computer, notebook, tablet or phone) FAILS and they cannot get to "the cloud"; (3) the “cloud-based” server MIGHT get hacked or hijacked by outsiders (remember it happened to the FEDERAL government, several retailers and banks, etc.) and the user’s data might be lost or tied up for an unknown period. I choose to keep all of my images, scanned-in documents and other needed digital information on a couple of these “books”. In case of fire or emergency, I grab 3 things: the “Colored Bag” (with my vitals – VIP ID docs, insurance, $$$ & weap) and these two HD drives (simply unplug the USB and power cords from the back) and I’m gone!!! The proprietary WD software can be used for password protection and security or the drives can be used as simply another listed drive to the operating system. Files can be moved, copied or deleted just as on any other drive connected to the system. Even if one does use cloud computing, these drives make EXCELLENT LOCAL BACK-UP units. The plastic shipping-box bottom (that holds the drive in the packaging box) makes an excellent desktop “stand” with a small footprint next to your primary device. Lightweight and compact, it comes with AC power adapter and a USB cable. Compatible with Windows NTFS format for Windows VISTA, Windows 7 / 8 or higher. (Must be reformatted for Mac OS X.) The drive has a 2-yr limited warranty, but I’ve still got WD drives from the 1990’s working reliably and without failure despite being remounted in several computer upgrades throughout the years. I’ve installed and used Maxtor, Seagate, Sony, Toshiba, and Conner hard drives in the past. I’ll go with the Western Digital brand anytime.
