First time I purchased WD 180 GB as my Dell laptop have same WD inbuilt HDD. Then I recently purchsed 1Tb WD external HDD.
The good The new and compact portable drive offers up to 3TB of storage space, delivers fast performance and comes in many color options. The drive works right out of the box, features hardware encryption and includes helpful backup software.
The bad The WD Backup software cant backup the entire system as an image and wont backup based on changes in real time. The new drives performance, though quite fast, was a bit slower than the previous version.
