Customer Ratings & Reviews

It was a little frightening, but it was installed easily. It has lots of storage.

This was a deal of the day purchase and acquired at an amazing discount. Great quality and solid drive that does exactly what it’s intended to! I actually took advantage and purchased several of them so I am very much pleased.

I bought this one to replace a pre-existing Toshiba external drive that I used with a Tablo DVR. I copied the files over from the old one before letting the Tablo format it for use with the DVR. So far, I like the WD and I've always like them in the past. I did not install the preloaded software allowing it to be used to automatically back up my laptop because I do not keep it connected. I only connect it for use in downloading bank records, tax records ECT and do not want it continuously on the net. I also back up my pictures manually.

Great to have when your old laptop is dying, and you need to back up your data. The new laptop did transfer some of the old files/documents, but not all. I did struggle with instructions and was finally able to decipher what to do.

I use this cloud-free (and therefore hack-free) back-up for my laptop computer daily. It is quick & easy.

This a good amount of space for the price. There are definitely better option but at this price point it can't be beat.

It’s easy to use even though installation didn’t work the first time. It’s exactly what I need to backup all my files in case the worst happens. Peace of mind is worth it.

Needed a back up for my files and this one was a good price and was easy to use.

Very nice back up hard drive. I love being able to back up photos and documents on this. I save everything here, and when I need to upgrade my computer eventually I will have it all here ready to go.

The Geek Squad recommended this external hard drive for downloading all the files on an older tower that crapped out. It made transferring them to the new tower super fast and now backs up all the new files easily.

This is a great portable HDD. Very fast and responsive. The capacity is great. Excellent additional hardware for my laptop. Seamless compatibility with Windows 7 & 10. Get one or two. They're great.

An added hard drive for backing up your computer. It was a great buy for when you purchase a new computer or if your computer crashes. You can't wrong with this item and it has plenty of storage.

ready to use immediately . Just plug it in and copy sensitive data to it. Would have liked if it came with a drive ghosting software so I could have immediately ghosted a potentially failing drive to this drive to swap out in the laptop later. . .

The WD Easy Store 1TB was exactly what I needed to back up my older Dell PC . I feel safe now that all my files-folders-and contacts are backed up so when I upgrade my old reliable Dell I wont be missing "my stuff" !

I now have all my files in an external USB and do not have to worry about my computer files being hacked and losing all my information. I can take this external file and load it into any device and have my up to date files.

Works great for ps5 extra storage. For PS4 games of course. But still works well

I purchased this external HD to connect to my sons Xbox to increase storage for his games. Connection was nearly effortless and his Xbox recognized the drive and set it up with out any issues. Great deal of the day purchase.

I love the easy store device. I have an older desktop and worried about losing important documents and photos. I downloaded all my files onto the device. They are easily transferred to my digital photo album and my other computer.

Works great out of the box. No special installation requirements. 1 TB stores most of your backup, pictures, files and misc items. If you have a lot of videos, you may need a bitter drive.

The unit was recommended by the Geek Squad staff to mitigate potential loss of data on a damaged laptop It performed well for it’s intended use
