This is a reliable SATA drive providing high capacity storage in a 2.5 inch drive. It provides respectable speeds for a wide range of file types. I am using this to catalog 100 years of family photos that I have been painstakingly digitizing. When you run out of NVMe slots, most computers still have SATA ports you can make use of. This drive is an excellent choice for one of those ports. I highly recommend it.

This is an important accessory for my laptop. It provides four high speed additional ports. It is plug and play. It comes from UGREEN, a company known for reliability - I have many of their cable products. The separation between the ports allows all four of the ports to be accessible. The connection cable is perfect for use with my laptop. The hub is small and easily packed in the pocket of my laptop bag. It was a very good buy.

This external drive is remarkably tiny for the 2 TB it holds!
It will easily fit into even the smallest pocket of a laptop sleeve (or bag). I reformatted the drive from the exFAT it comes with to NTFS, and then performed some speed tests. I connected it to a fast USB-C port on my computer and obtained a speed of ~1000MB/s, consistent with what most others have found. This is fine for my needs. I use this drive to make backups of my laptop. I highly recommend this drive!

My new ASUS Strix G16 16 inch laptop is thick and has a large 280 Watt power brick. This backpack can easily handle both, and has plenty of space to spare! My laptop fits comfortably in the main storage area. There is even space to insert a little extra padding on the bottom and sides when making longer trips. There are three nested pockets on the front. My large 280 Watt power brick fit easily in the smallest pocket. I put its power cord in the second largest pocket, with plenty of room for my gaming mouse and my gaming pad. The largest pocket I use for papers, and a little extra padding. I was able to snatch this up on Cyber Monday for just $10 ! The backpack is well made, with a good and solid handle. I recommend this backpack.

I purchased this, but cant find the power button to turn it off. I hate to leave it plugged in all the time when it's not in use most of the time. Is there a power button on it? If not, then do i have to physically unplug when it's not in use?
The WD Easystore external drives do not have a power button to turn the unit off and on, A possible solution would be to plug the power brick in to a power strip with a switch.
(I think that another version of this drive sold by other retailers - the WD Elements external drive - does have a power button on the back. However, this button looks to be an electronic switch. So even that drive will remain connected to power when turned off with the switch.)
