This Western Digital easystore external hard drive has a compact profile for increased portability, and the included WD Discovery software makes backing up data easy.
This is a great drive - a huge amount of storage and fast! However, if you are writing large amounts to it, you may need to get a fan. Let me relate to you my experience.
When I first got the drive, I set it up to do a full scan of the drive. I did a CrystalDiskInfo before I started (see the picture), and the disk temperature was 31deg C. The scan took 5 hours. At the end of the scan the disk temperature had risen to 50deg C (see the picture). After completing the scan I watched to see how the temperature dropped. After 3 hours it had fallen to 45deg C. The passive cooling acts very slowly, despite the large number of slots in the bottom, top, and back of the drive housing.
Next I obtained a dual fan, and set one at the back to push cool air into the drive. I put the second on top of the drive to pull hot air out of the drive. I then wrote files to the drive for 3 hours. The starting temperature of the drive was 30deg C. The temperature at the end of the 3 hours of copying files was just 33 deg (see picture)! I think this shows the effectiveness of having external fans.
I also did a speed test of the drive using CrystalDiskMark (see picture). This hard disk drive is fast!
I use this drive to archive material on my desktop computer at regular intervals. Large amounts are written to the drive, and I need the fans to maintain the health of the drive. I suspect that others using this drive will be doing something similar, and would benefit by adding fans.
Despite this, I think this is a good drive and am happy with its purchase.

does the port for the jumper cable on the device accept a connector with a female 12 volt connection..... as opposed to the clamps for jump starting? Some devices like this do allow this. Does this one?
There is a pin port next to the port for charging the device, that you can plug a connector with a female 12 volt connection. My unit came with such a connector.
