Ordered this on freedom sale and got this for only 3600. I was deciding between WD or Seagate but ended up on this as WD is somewhat more reputable than the latter. Now coming onto the HDD it’s as good as it can be , the read write speeds are amazing and touches 100 MBps when copying one big file but slows down when copying multiple smaller file but this is not a fault of HDD so it’s all good. LED notification light is also not that aggressively lit so you can easily work at night in dark. No vibration or any annoying sounds so it’s definitely a plus. One thing I didn’t like that much is the build quality. The plastic used is cheap and flimsy and does not feel sturdy in hand so if it falls down goodbye forever. Plastic quality could have been better. You need to register you Product at WD portal to avail warranty in future so do that as soon as you get it. It provides 2 years warranty instead of 3 years like Seagate so that’s also somewhat off-putting. So overall nice for cheap unimportant data backup but I wouldn’t trust this for important sensitive personal data as build quality is cheap but biggest plus is its affordability in fact go for Seagate or WD they both are good. Well so far so good but if any problem arise in future will update… happy Independence day.

The media could not be loaded.
The product is really really good and i’m really satisfied with it. Been using it since many months and just actually got reminded to review it. It is really better than it’s price. I’ve opted for the 1.5TB and the thing is it is very good very portable. Getting 1.5TB in your pocket with all your stuff is just insane. It has a good speed of 100MBps. Yes u heard correct. And sometimes it’s greater than that. It goes to 115MBps sometimes. However, depends on your media too what type of media it is. Also don’t get confused with mbps and MBps. I’m saying more relevant for what customers look for (as i also got confused).
In the down side after months of usage (now), if i touch it on the surface i get cracking sounds but it is working perfectly fine. I guess it is something to do with the plates of the Hard Disk but well it is working so..didn’t mind much.
The cable is a little small but very good quality. Would suggest to not twist it as it is fiber optics, it could get damaged if you play with it or mess around.
Also would really suggest to carry a case for it. You can see couple of cases in amazon which fits it. It makes it a whole lot protective to any potential damage. And it is better to carry it with the cable too. Thanks! At this price, would rate a 6 out of 5 stars if they let me to!

I bought 1.5T WD HDD and it is excellent and have amazing performance. It’s design is elegant and very lightweight. Very usefull for traveling and doing work.
Hallo! ich bin allgemein großer Fan von WD und habe die Festplatte bis jetzt sowohl für Windows als auch für MacOS genutzt. Für letzteres musste sie umformatiert werden, was aber auch klar kommuniziert wird. (achtung, hier wird auch ein Adapter gebraucht, weil Mac nur noch Type-C verwendet)
Bei beidem, bietet sie eine unfassbar schnelle Datenübertragung an (für eine HDD-Festplatte), was grade beim Verschieben vieler Daten (und Backups) wichtig ist und für den normalen Verbraucher, der nur einige Bilder oder Dokumente verschiebt, nicht ganz so wichtig ist.
Besonders wirkt das Gehäuse robust, mir sehr wichtig, da die Festplatte immer mit dem Laptop mitwandert und viel unterwegs ist, außerdem ist sie sehr klein und flach, hat keine unnötigen Ecken und Kanten oder Lichter.

Does exactly what it is supposed to. Connect to PC and instantly start to store/transfer files. Light and easy to carry with a large capacity for the price. Recommended for anyone looking for a backup/storage drive.

2017年に購入。自宅の据え置きノートPCに繋いでおり自動バックアップ的に使っています。
ほぼ毎日PCの電源を入れているので必然的にこのHDDも使っていることになりますが、タイトルの通りこれまで問題が発生したことはありません。
そろそろ追加＆予備のものを買おうと考えていますが、こちらのシリーズのより大容量のものを第一候補と考えています。
