Not much to say, it's huge, but really more of a storage drive than anything else. Tried as a boot drive for half an hour when shuffling data around, definitely could feel the difference between a performance-oriented drive.

I got my WB on sale for 106.99 very cheap for an 1.5 TB drive. capacity over speed, but you have to be very careful of handleing this drive, I accidently have the drive bump on to my knee, and when I test it out, everything seems to work fine, but once I copy some data on to it, I get the drive data error message.... reformat doesn't help at all, have to replace a new one, this is a very sensitive drive, even a small bump will cost extream damage to the drive, so be careful bringing this drive home.
