Pc Not Finding Hard Drive

Fastest Hard Drive I've ever had the pleasure of installing in my PC. I will never go back to any other hard drive again, lookin to get into an 950 pro now.

I used this cable to add an additional hard drive in my Pc.

No fuss on a Windows PC, excellent hard drive!

I use this cable to connect to external hard drives. Firm grip between pc and hard drive.

Building a new pc and decided I wanted a hard drive that can handle a lot of read/writes so I bought this. Ran it through a hard drive test for a number of cycles and came up clean. And the r/w speeds are much faster then my other slower rotational speed drives. If you want a solid drive that will outlast all of your other drives, this is the one to get. And as always B&H shipped all the items fast and were well packed. Highly recommend them.

I love this thing. It's 5 times the size of the hard drive on my first desktop PC. It's sturdy, lightweight, and dependable.

Great backup drive for PC! It worked right out of the box in backing-up my ancient desktop computer's data over a USB 2.0 connection! Why get this over a larger desktop-sized backup hard drive? Well... Its small size makes it easy to put away. It's powered only through the cable connection, saving the hassle of having to power it down (just eject in Windows and unplug it when you're done!) and saving money on electricity costs. And its design for portability makes me worry less about the repercussions of accidentally dropping it on a hard surface or floor. I definitely would buy again, but with so much storage space left over, it might be a while!

Works as intended. The prefect upgrade for an older PC/laptop with an old style hard drive.

My first serious computer was a Dell PC with an 80gig hard drive. I discovered that a loaded hard drive equals a computer that grinds to a halt. I purchaced this 1TB drive to accompany my Sony Vaio, with an almost 500GB drive, to keep from overworking my computer. With lots of raw image files from a Nikon D-300, it's easy to see the Vaio getting overloaded sometime in the future. The Western Digital Elements SE portable drive will be the primary storage destination for me, keeping the Vaio unencumbered to maintain it's operating speed and perhaps minimize the possibility of other recovery problems.

Transmits data directly from your current hard drive, without the old drive being connected to the PC. Works perfectly at full USB-3 speeds. Total capacity is actually about 18 GB.
