That's a fairly good deal. I've had a few recertified drives from WD before and never had any problems with them. Might pick up another as external drive for the xbox one.
Just remember to always have a backup of your data! :wink:

Yeah these will work with PS4 and Xbox One for anyone interested
Good deal, I got one of these last time they were on the recertified store. Working great and a good saving.

It's actually not WD who sells those drives. It's a company called 'Digital River', which used to sell Canon refurbished item on auction sites. My experience with Digital River was not good with a Canon item some years ago (scratched screen on camera, which broke down after one use). Maybe they have improved.

Just sending my 4Tb recertified back after failing an extended test with 'too many bad sectors' Maybe just unlucky!

If you buy a WD MyBook external hard drive the software to test the disk comes on the drive but has to be installed of course.
It may come on some other WD hard drives, I am not sure.
