    4 TB? Really? Oh yeah!!! It's great for backups of the kids movies and archiving those digital photos from 15 years ago. Excellent value for the drive storage capacity. The USB 3.0 throughput makes the backups run super fast and the thicker case size of the drive is worth the storage capacity. 15 years of pictures and home movies have FINALLY been backed up from my primary system. Did I mention the great storage capacity? ;-) Sleeping well tonight with the backup in place...

    I split this drive into 3 partitions, one for my time machine back up, 1 for my GoPro Videos and one for miscellaneous files. I film hours of video per week and have plenty of storage. It's fast and reliable.

    So far so good. Plenty of space for Xbox one games. 19 with less than 25% space used. Very easy set up, I was done in minutes. And cheaper than the green Xbox seagate hard drive and just as good.

    This is an excellent portable hard drive. I've had it more than a year and have never had a problem with it. If I had to give it a bad review, it would be because of the usb cord. The USB 3.0 micro B end bends way too easily, running the risk of disconnection mid-use. Otherwise, great product.

    Good drive, but slower than the 2TB version

    I expected this drive to be identical to the 2TB version, but for whatever reason I cannot get the same data transfer rate on the same USB 3.0 port (the data transfer rate is about 20% slower, but still ample for my needs - e.g. periodic backup of photos and videos, etc.). I do like the larger 4TB capacity, but of course there is the potential downside of "putting all your eggs into one basket" - so if you choose to go with the larger capacity that can fit all your files, be sure to back up your backup because even the best drives sometimes fail.
