Review: Great value for money. - Great value for money. The build quality feels solid and premium. I especially like the password protection and encryption feature, which keeps my data safe. Backup software is also very helpful. Highly recommended for professionals and students and designers.
Review: Good product brought down due to limited use of software... fishing for pennies... Dirty strategy! - Great product. Works really fast and very well... Only problem with the product is that the associated software from Acronis comes with a limited period of use... Too bad for both WD and the software org. That is crazy and pours water on the good experience provided by the product and the software... They seem to be fishing for pennies while losing out on the pounds... They will certainly lose market share due to their useless limits on usage of the software. Other competing products don't have this problem.
