We bought this to add more space to the PS4 console. Easy set and has worked flawlessly.

Glad did not pay attention to one guy who reviewed the item as it did not work for the PS4. Installed it and it worked like a charm. Now I have plenty of space. Is it slower than an SSD? Yes, but it is only like 25-30% faster "loading" the games, so for the price you pay I don't think is worth it. If you have money go for it, but if you are in a budget like me, then this will work perfectly.

Purchased this drive to increase a home media server capacity for a HTPC. It was decently reasonably priced for a 2.5" drive. It works well enough that I have no issues with its purpose. I would not recommend it as a primary drive or heavy use drive on a normal use PC as it's not very fast though, but it is great as secondary storage.
CrystalDiskMark shows sequential reads of 96MB/s and writes of 116MB/s.
Random reads and writes are slow as expected. About 1.2MB/s reads and 1.5MB/s writes, with Q=1 reads at only 0.4MB/s.

For switching out the original PS4 hard drive: Seagate 500gb 5400rpm. At the time about the same price, the pros of having more hard drive space outweighs the cons of not having enough space on a SSD. (There's never enough space in a videogame consoles these days. Plus, it's a hassle downloading, downloading updates, and deleting games because of this.)
My only regrets, I wished I got a better deal on pricing.
Perfect for use as portable backup for MAC desktop

I bought this for my Mac desktop computer Time Machine backup, to replace a much smaller drive in a portable case. I had no problems with replacing the drive in the case, and starting the backup. I had the drive delivered to my door. It arrived on time and in perfect condition. Great service from BestBuy, as always.

Its a hard drive what more do you wanna know? its 5400rpm which is alright nothing too fast but you do get alot of space. Put it in your laptop or ps4 , it works.

The WD 2 TB Hard Drive is extremely reliable. I used it to clone my PC hard drive so if I get malware I can simply over-write on the affected original and copy the good clone onto the original and restore the original drives integrity.
Works like a charm !
