Fast, quiet, just does what you expect.

I have known WD as a good brand for years. I've only had this MyBook for a short time, so I can't say much about reliability yet. I assume that's fine. I gave the disk a full format with NTFS, because I only use it in combination with Windows 10. I don't need the WD backup software. It is not only fast, but also super quiet, which is a big plus for me.

not reliable enough for backup.
- not expensive for a lot of storage
- after nearly two years, the disc refused to coin. All data (backup) lost.
didn't want more coins. Data could not be recovered and accessed.

Best price/quality
- Fast with large files
- Good software for backup and security
- Good price/quality ratio
- Audible during use
For this price, the product offers excellent performance and the included software is an absolute top. This is still the best choice for me for eHDD.
