My Book 3TB External USB 3.0 Drive, 6 Months WD Warranty Refurbished
(WDBFJK0030HBKRB)
Pros: Easy to Setup
USB 3.0 - Fantastic
3 TB - great capacity
Really Plug and Play
Cons: I set it up on my Netgear Router to be available to all my devices - Unfortunately the WD Software does not find the drive this way - but Netgear lays it out as a network drive and I can see it easily through Windows explorer - and Map it as a Network drive
Other Comments: After Setting up the hardware and plugging it in - I connected the USB cable to my Netgear Router. I
I attempted to use the WD Software. After I got several messages "Cannot Find Drive" I opened up Netgear Admin page and ensured it was Identified as a Drive.
Then opened up Explorer and Mapped as a Network Drive - Worked wonderful
I opened up Norton 360 and setup a full back up - 1 - 500 gig SSD and one 1 TB Hard drive - this took 35 minutes. - this is a great speed improvement
I then Set up a complete copy of my old backup - 500 Gig Buffalo Network drive - Not to my Surprise it took 2 Days to complete the copy - this is how slow my Buffalo back up drive was over the network.
So I am Very happy over performance and ease of use
