PS> the Cavio blue plastic outside scratches easily so your new device will look 6 months old. Also trying to format / un "BS" the Cavio drive is a major pain and does not work with Mac Book Pro's where WD 2.5" 1tb does in USB2.0 mode.
Same problem with the WD software that comes with the WD external drives as backup software, takes ages instead of Acronis TIH that take 15 mins max for full hd image.
Great going !!!
Terrible... super slow.... slowed down my computer for days... it is NOT user friendly. Does not allow you to easily STOP a back up. Does not back up my documents on my D drive, only C drive. Useless piece of "you know what". Waste of money!!!!
:banghead:
DO NOT BUY!!!!!
Or if you do... DO NOT USE their software. Manually back up everything yourself.
