    It was actually cheaper for me to buy something that gave me way more space than simply purchasing a thumb drive! No brainer!

    I was actually pleasantly surprised at the file transfer speed for being an external hard drive in the smaller 2.5” size. Not sure what the rotational speed is, but I used a large 3.5” external drive with 7200rpm speed and this one was the same if not faster at transferring files. Very silent as well. Have used this to transfer large file sizes very well.

    My husband brought in a picture of what he wanted and the employees found it and were very helpful. We had purchased a used DVR that needed an external hard drive. It was easy for him to install and has been working well.

    The external hard drive is great for storing pictures or other large files as it eliminates the compiling storage of your pc or laptop and gives you mush more storage to help keep memory from building up and slowing your pc or laptop down.

    My Desk Top hard drive fried and I had a very good laptop to use so the Tech Team saved my data from the Desk Top onto this Hard Drive. I didn't lose any of my Turbo Tax data or work data. Plus, I have a ton of room to back up my laptop on.

    Who doesn’t need storage? This is great for storing files and photos quickly and it’s compatible with Apple devices. Small enough to carry or conveniently store away safely.

    I needed a backup drive ASAP so I ran to Best Buy and picked this off the shelf. I had to back up my Dad's Windows 10 machine, including creating a system image. It connected and performed quickly and beautifully. Then I plugged in into my Mac Book Pro to check my files and it read everything seamlessly. When my Dad's Laptop came back from repair, I was able to restore the machine using the system image on this drive.

    I have had an old WD HDD since 2007. It used USB 2.0. The WB easyStore is smaller than back then and uses USB 3.0. It downloads files faster for backup from your PC or Mac.
