The Black2 dual hard drive & solid state (SSD) drive is WD’s unique approach to the age-old problem of being forced to choose between lightning fast performance with limited storage or slower performance with tons of storage. It’s TWO drives in one!

This Nexus 5 video was completed over a span of over 3 weeks during which I used only the this phone.

There’s one error in it. I hope you guys will forgive me. I tried swiping down with two fingers a couple times on the phone and it didn’t register to go directly to quick toggles, so without investigating further I assumed for some reason this functionality wasn’t present. It IS, so that’s a definite “boo boo” on my part. Sorry 🙁
