Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this to expand storage in my desktop from the primary drive (SSD). Not sure how well this would work as a primary boot drive, but for storing files/steam games its quick and has been reliable thus far.

Great storage device for gaming on the pc. Would recommend for cheaper option then ssd.

Works like a champ. No issues thus far. Plug and go. Can't really talk about its reliability yet, but performance-wise it seems to be working great and I'm happy with the purchase, especially at the price point.

I used this drive to replace one that had failed. After restoring from an image backup, it was easily installed into the computer and functioned well. Perfect replacement drive.

Bought this as a removable drive for backup of all my photos. Easy peasy install. Quick transfer speed. Does exactly what i needed it to do. Relying on WD's reputation for reliable long-term storage.

Bought this for game storage. Have been buying WD for many years. So far, it hasn't disappoint. If you want good storage that will not break down, this is a must have drive.

Paid online and pick it up 30 minutes later. Took me 10 minutes to install and done! Within an hour, I added 4TB to my desktop. It was very affordable as well. I would recommend this hard drive to anybody.

Easy install WD and a great buy for the money. Technology has gotten so more affordable for the little guy. WD has always been my first choice and I have very rarely had any problems with their products and when I have, they have always taken good care of me. Once again, Thanks WD

Great drive with lots of space. I purchased to replace a similar drive that was dying so be sure to have two copies of your data. Very easy to install and format.

This is a great, low cost internal hard drive. Runs cool and whisper quiet. BUT, it does not work properly with Windows XP, 7 and Windows 10 with an older computer. This 4 GiG drive is for newer 64bit computers, like less than 5 years old. If you have an older computer (>5yrs), get a 2TB drive which uses the older MBR setup. This 4 Gig drive needs the newer GPT setup in order to see the full 4 gigs on windows explorer.

Very high quality, works excellent. Exactly what I was looking for.

A great buy at this price. Easy to install and use. Perfect addition to a gaming computer.

Needed a larger hard drive for media, pictures, videos. Found this drive on sale for the same price as another 2TB drive - the choice was obvious to me. has worked great so far.

Easy to use and pretty fast for a standard sata internal hard drive. I was able to copy 3 other hard drives to this one in a short time. Got it on sale and the price was crazy low.

inexpensive way to add internal (or external with a case) large storage for backups

I needed more capacity and HDD's are still much less expensive per TB. Western Digital Blue series is a good combination of performance, power efficiency and product quality.

For the record, I'm a Seagate user, I've used Seagate since before IDE hard drives. I wanted a 4 TB hard drive internal for my secondary drive that I could work on. I do Photography and working from a Network drive is extremely slow. I've been hearing some very good things about Western Digital so I though I'd go ahead and purchase this one. I must admit it has met all of my expectations, it's fast, quiet and hasn't faltered a bit. I'm transferring most of my images over and I've now transffered over 2TB, it hasn't gotten hot and it works like a champ. I'm really happy I purchased it .

Used on pc for extra storage. Doesnt come with sata cable though but hard to complain for the price

I had a laptop and was used to external drives (USB 3.0 speeds) and recently built a new desktop. I use NVME as my boot and this as storage. To me, it's faster than an external in accessing/reading/writing. I'm sure there's numbers to support this somewhere but I'm not going to go through all that. I kinda wish these were 7200RPM, but still, good value/GB and even better on sale. It's been awhile since I bought a traditional internal HDD, but from what I remember WD was the best, seems to be the case still.

Perfect solution for more photo storage. Easy install.
