What owners and reviewers say
Summarised from 2 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices
Commonly praised
- A more compact enclosure than the outgoing model, with straightforward on-site and cloud backup software.
- Includes password protection and hardware encryption, with performance well matched to backup duties.
- Owners find it a lot of storage for the money, and several shuck the enclosure for the drive inside.
- Transfer speeds around 165 MB/s and simple plug-and-play setup are reported.
- Owners report quiet operation.
- The bundled WD software is used for backup and drive checks.
Commonly criticised
- No internal component upgrades over the previous generation, so it is largely a cosmetic refresh.
- The glossy finish smudges easily, and it carries only a two-year limited warranty.
- Owners repeatedly flag that the case runs hot under load and consider its ventilation poor.
- There is no power or activity LED, which owners miss as an at-a-glance indicator.
- Owners note there is no power switch, and one reports the exFAT formatting hung a PC at boot until it was reformatted.
