WD My Book 2TB External Hard Drive for Mac

I use this external storage device as the primary storage location for all of my large photographic files (mostly .PSD, .NEF, and .JPEG). I was maxing out the space on my iMac and this item has relieved the constraints that the storage issue placed on the performance of my iMac. The item was very easy to install and it took only a few hours to transfer all of my files. I did not look for any software with the item that might aid with loading or customizing of the hard drive because I did not need that. It was not readily apparent that any such software exists and I still don't know whether the hard drive has any such assistance. The documentation does not refer to any. So if you do not feel comfortable with manual hard drive setup or file transfers, use of this hard drive may be a bit challenging. Overall I am very pleased with the purchase if this item and I am confident that it will meet my demanding storage needs for at least another 18 months. The unit does have some low level noise associated with its operation but nothing that distracts or causes any problems for me.
