    This external hard drive is as simple as it gets. No set up, just plug and play. Plenty of room for most everthing. Good product at a great price.

    I am a novelist and I need and use a computer every day. My old one got destroyed when I spilled water on it. My wife was able to pick up a new one and I was using it the same day. It's a Lenova lap top and I have no complaints.

    This external hard drive came with 937 gb of storage space but other than that, it's a great product! It let you store anything you like and it's easy to gain access once you connect it to your laptop. This external hard drive is great for when you need that extra space if you run out on your laptop.

    I use this for my PS4 and let me tell you that it has changed my entire gameplay in a very positive way. I don’t know how I’ve went my entire gaming life without using one of these. So worth it and very easy to understand and use. Worth the money.

    I bought this to expand the storage on my Xbox one X and it works just as I would expect. Once you set it up the first time you are good to go. You can even unplug it without having to set it up again. Load times are hard to distinguish a difference between this product and the xbox’s Hard drive. 5/5

    Bought this for my wife so she could transfer her files from her old mac to her new one. Easy breezy (although Apple makes so tough when you have to reformat everything, SHEESH). Much better value than buying a $80-$90 Apple product.

    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 purchased this on the recommendation of Best Buy Geek squad. I was recycling 3 devices ( laptop/ desktops). They downloaded everything off them on this into three folders. Still have plenty of space to backup other files.

    We purchased two of these WD - Easystore 1TB USB portable hard drives for our business and home computers. They are easy to use and a valuable tool for backing up our business (and personal) files. I learned that just because your files are stored on a cloud file system, it doesn't mean that that is necessarily a reliable backup. It is important to have portable backup drive separate from the PC in case your hard-drive crashes, or the data files are corrupted or damaged on any cloud file system.

    I was led to the device I was looking at. I checked the specs and left. I did some comparative eval at home and came back to get this product. It worked out of the box and I appreciate your help.

    Very good product from WD. I mostly use it for storage of pictures, Music and videos. Transfers are fast and efficient. Especially the larger movie files. I have many WD hard drives. I like them for their durability.
