The fast USB 3.0 connector is backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports and provides you with the fastest possible transfer rates so you don't have to wait. Its compact lightweight construction is also shock-resistant, protecting your data from damage. The Western Digital Elements SE is ready out of the box for Windows computers, but can be reformatted for use with a Mac.

Fast Transfer Rates

This hard drive is equipped with a USB 3.0 connector, which provides transfer speeds up to ten times faster those of the USB 2.0. If you still use a USB 2.0, though, you can still use the Elements SE, as the drive is backward compatible.

Reliable, Sturdy Construction

Western Digital tests all of its equipment for durability, shock resistance, and reliability over time, so you know your Elements SE will hold up to daily wear and tear. For extra protection, pick up a Western Digital WD Nomad rugged case for extra drop protection and resistance to moisture and dust.

High Capacity for All Your Stuff

A 750 GB hard drive is large enough to hold over three hundred movies and over ten thousand hours of digital music. Speed up your computer by moving all your entertainment and archived files to your Western Digital Elements hard drive.

Ready Out of the Box

Your Western Digital Elements SE external hard drive is ready to use right out of the box, and the required USB cable is included. There's no bloatware or extra programs you don't want associated with this drive; this drive is empty, formatted, and ready for you to put your own data on it immediately.
