Customer Ratings & Reviews

Purchased this product in the past. Easy to use, fast, and great for storing considerable amount of photos. Based on ease-of-use and storage capacity, purchased this one for my wife.

Great compact size with superior ease of use. For under $50, you can't beat this deal. True example of "plug and play".

I used it to get clips in 4k from my PS5 and then transfer them to my computer. It worked perfectly for me

Purchased to use with my PS5 for my backlog of PS4 games. Works great, super easy set-up: just plug and play (it may ask you to format but if it does just click okay and it’ll do it automatically). Can’t use it to play PS5 games on but works like a charm for playing PS4 games on a PS5; Plus, after it’s set-up you can change your PS5 settings so that PS4 games are downloaded to the external Hard Drive by default. Highly recommend at the price I got it (~$50)!

With the WD Easystore, you can trust that your files are secure and easily accessible whenever you need them.

Bought this to backup an external drive that has all of our pictures, music and videos. Works great and small enough to store in a safe deposit box. Great price and product.

The drive was easy to set up. Plug and play. I am running mine thru a USB 3.0 to thunderbolt adaptor. It seems rather speedy. There have been no problems as yet....stays connected to my Mac thru sleep cycles and wakes when needed.

Great portable back up! Lots of space and easy storage!

The WD - Easystore 1TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive has been an excellent backup hard drive and was purchased at a very reasonable price. It has worked flawlessly so far. This is the third one I have purchased and all 3 have worked with no problems. I would definitely recommend it.

Western Digital is known for its quality products! This external USB drive is compact and easy to use. It has plenty of space for all your documents and files.

This unit is much easier and smaller than my old unit. There is 1TB of storage available. Set up is easy. You can pick it up and go if need be.

This device is exactly what I needed to backup documents and photos. WD-Easystore has no set-up just attach and use. It is easy, fast, and compact. I love it!

Great backup drive option of your PC! This product is affordable and excellent for the people trying to save space up. Easy to use and works as expected.

Light weight and it's very fast. Best portable hard drive at great price. Size is also very compact. I hooked up with my Chromecast with Google TV.

My son ran out of hard drive space on his PS4 and this simple external hard drive was the answer. All he had to do was plug it in and format the drive and BAM 1tb of more space. Great product at a good price.

Got this external HDD in a hurry to install macOS Sierra on because a critical piece of software I use had massive issues once I upgraded to High Sierra. This was the first time I had ever installed an OS on a external drive and I must say the USB 3.0 interface didn't disappoint! This drive handles the use of the OS in a surprisingly quick fashion. There's not much of a visible difference in speed between this HDD and the internal one of my Mac other than the initial boot up where the internal is a bit quicker. But my Mac HDD is a Fusion drive which is pretty much a Mac branded SSHD so comparing that to a fully mechanical USB drive isn't completely fair in all aspects. I love this item though and the capacity and speed are I think worth as much if not a little more than what Best Buy sold it to me for! The only negative so far is that I can't put this drive to sleep successfully when running the OS after being unused for the user specified time. When I go to wake it the monitor just won't come on and to get anywhere I have to manually restart the Mac. So just don't put it to sleep and your gold! :D I'm sure the power draw is fairly insignificant anyway and won't be something that isn't worth the great use it's giving you. So I highly recommend this item and I hope it works as great for you as it is for me.

I've owned WD products for years. Customer Service is excellent though you may never have a need to call them. Their products work great and last for a huge amuount of years. I have an external harddrive that has lasted over 10 years and still working like new. Bought this one because it can fit into my pocket so I can take pictures from my phone and transfer them to this harddrive, for example. It also made transfering files from my old computer to my new one very easy.

Works like it should. Plug n play simple enough. Great having an extra TB of storage for only $45! Great buy. Runs pretty fast too.

Great item for its price and without occupying too much space.
