My WD drive was dying so I waited to black friday to get a new drive. Came across this drive as it was a great deal being $79 so I bought 2 so I'd have a back up of a back up.

Upon getting it home, it was very complicated. It wouldn't let me put files on it. I downloaded software like 10 times. Finally looked up on google how to do partitioning and it finally worked. Went straight to doing that for the second drive as it had the same problem.

Took it to school to start doing some work and I could save changes to the files on the drive. I couldn't put new files on the drive. It kept crashing and making me force eject it. It corrupted one of my files for my Thesis work. Back home the drives worked fine (I use a mac book pro) Took both drives to school with me to try work again. And same problems. I got the lab tech to come talk to me and said these drives were famous for crashing like this. He did some work on my one drive that would hopefully make it work and it wouldn't accept any changes he tried to make (Computer at school is a mac system but can also run as a PC. But it was in mac mode) I'm returning both of them and getting something else hopefully more reliable. Don't buy for storing very important information.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
