You have to pay extra to use its included backup software after the introductory 30-day trial. The drive has no security features and carries a short warranty of just one year.
In my personal experience, Western Digital have been my most dependable storage devices, I have owned IDE drives, SATA HDD's and now external HDD's and all have performed well beyond warranty dates, none have ever failed completely.

None so far (2 months of use)
Drive had a protected partition which had to be removed and install as a normal partition, then reformatted to NTSF before I could use the drive with the computer I need to connect to. Took quite a bit of time but I managed using several different computers with different op systems to get it done.
I have purchased several of these and have traveled with them around the world numerous times. I have never had a failure with them. Great portable hard drive for the money!
This dinky little unit sits alongside my desktop permanently connected to the USB 3.0 downstream and used as my backup storage. Just plug it in, and it's ready to go with no faffing about with drivers on disk. Truly 'plug n' play'.
