## Description

Review: 安心して使い続けられる、信頼性の高いポータブルHDD - WDのポータブルHDDは、会社と自宅で合わせて5台ほど使用していますが、これまで一度もトラブルが発生したことはありません。認識しなくなったこともなく、安定して使えているため、個人的にはとても信頼している製品です。 価格が手頃でコストパフォーマンスが良い点に加え、本体がコンパクトで場所を取らないのも気に入っています。持ち運びや設置のしやすさは日常使いにおいて重要ですが、その点でも不満はありません。 「普通に、当たり前に使え続ける」――それが一番難しくて、一番価値がある。そう感じさせてくれるHDDです。今後も同シリーズを選ぶと思います。
Review: slow and useless - Extremely slow. Tried to backup files from my Mac, but crashes constantly. Basically useless
