Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great hard-drive. Can't go wrong with wd. Reliable, fast, and a great value.

Bought this to fix a buddies ps4 hard drive error and worked great, I cant remember if I had to format it pre install or if the Playstation did it for us but we got it worked out.

I recently replaced my Mother's old laptop hard drive with this product and it works so much smoother and so much faster than before. This is a brand I will come back to for years to come. I'm definitely a tech nerd and I love more storage for computers and especially for laptops.

My MacBook Pro fell & was damaged beyond repair that my OS couldn't be found on startup. I reviewed my options and decided my best course of action was to replace my internal HDD. I went to my local Best Buy to Locate a cheap but ample replacement and found this gem. After installation I was surprised at how fast it worked to be aging technology. My only regret about this purchase is how loudly it performs when reading/writing files. I would recommend to someone who needs a inexpensive replacement, but not quite ready to make the leap towards SSD.

Good product. Reliable brand. Lots of storage space for all your files. Fast speeds. Easy to setup.

This is far from my first WD hard drive. I replaced my DVD player with an extra HD storage bay so I could install an 250 GB SSD in place of my regular hard drive, and then have this 1TB for additional storage (I do a lot of digital photography, and that eats up HD space). My 6 year old Dell XPS is now as fast as any new computer out there, and has 2 to 3 times the storage.

I purchased this for an upgrade for my ps4. Slides in nice and easy. This thing runs just a tad faster than the ps4 stock hard drive. The down size is with any hard drive is once its formatted you loss about 40gigs right off the bat. other than this its that perfect ahrd drive for size and price.

I wouldnt recommend using an HDD for long term storage of sensitive data, but it works well enough for insensitive stuff. The cost is well worth it when comparing similar capacities for SSDs.

Had it for a month so far, no issues with it. Used it to upgrade my old ps4, because I was tired of deleting one of the 3 games I had room for, everytime one of them needed an update. Easy and fast to install drivers and install in ps4. Would definitely recommend.

PS4 hard drive died. (Blue line of death). PS4 would not boot up. Just kept going to sleep. I did a simple swap out of hard drives per the advice of a very helpful Best Buy associate. Great advice and simple procedure. Only $50 and my PS4 has a 2nd life.

Purchases as external storage for Playstation 4. Works flawlessly out of the box. Faster than the built in storage is just a bonus! Works so well I'll be purchasing another soon as a tertiary hard drive for my PCs. (IT professional! If it fits my high standard for hardware, then it will handle anything you can throw its way!

I purchased this primarily to expand the storage on my PS4. Not only was this easy to install and cost effective, it doubled the memory I had for games, saves, and downloads. I couldn't be happier, although some times I do wish I paid extra for the 2TB version.

Very easy to install, speed is great, 1tb is great

this was a replacement HD for a laptop with Win 8.1 . was a flawless install and upgraded to windows 10. spent longer trying to find win 8 serial number. gave up and installed win 10. it appears the serial number is on the bios so I got the free upgrade. The hd was faster than the stock drive. great price.

My laptop is over 5 years old and I took it to Geek Squad who recommended that replacing the drive would make my laptop run faster and eliminate the problems I am having with it. I'm picking my laptop up tomorrow and I'm sure this purchase of the internal drive will solve my issues.

I don't know how helpful a review of a hard drive can be. I needed a hard drive because my last one died. I bought this one at the store, took it home and installed it. I put it in a Macbook Pro. The installation involved taking the screws out of the bottom of the machine and taking the bottom cover off (with the machine closed and upside down). Then, there are 4 screws that hold the drive mounting bracket in. I took those off and slid the one mounting bracket off, disconnected the cable and took out the old drive. There is a small piece that screws into the side of the drive that helps the mounting bracket hold it in place - this drive doesn't come with those, so don't throw away the old drive until you're done with the installation. I simply reversed the process to put the new one in. If you're even remotely mechanically inclined you can do it yourself. Total installation time was probably 6-8 minutes. It works. Hopefully it will last as long as I have the computer.

I used this hard drive in a home camera security system hub. Its works flawlessly...installed in a snap, and without issue. I would recommend this product if in need of a hard drive.

After the advice given from geek sqd to spend upwards of $500+, i decided to try backing my failing hard drive up to an external drive, then installed this hard drive. With a tad bit of assistance from a tech savvy friend we did a perfect job and spent less than $200. Love this drive, it's fast and more than enough space.

The hard drive works well It installed very easily, Just plugged it in and installed Windows and it was up and running. Drive seems to be very fast at this time at least faster than last drive.. Found this for the right price at store .Looked in other stores and found this price was a little better at Best Buy

This is a very quick hard drive for the price I’ve always used WD Hardrives for their cheap prices and great quality hardware
