A good bang for the buck!
I purchased this drive for the purpose of backing my data as well as having a handy, small, portable HDD. I have pleasantly discovered it to be so much more with the included software. Continuous, automatic backup of all my pics, documents, etc.. Although WD has lowered prices on larger external drives, this serves my purpose nicely and is unobtrusive as it sits next to my computer on my desk. Currently offered for $10 less than I paid, I would certainly recommend it to a friend.

Total Satisfaction
Reformatted drive for mostly Linux use. I use USB 3 on my main computer and USB 2 for things like media. This drive is fine with both, but USB 3 is significantly faster. Movies play fine with USB 2. Plug into a USB connector and it works. No manual needed. LOL.
