Customer Ratings & Reviews

Small, easy to use, and fast. My only issue is the device becomes hot immediately during use. Not sure if that’s meant to happen or if the item is defective.

These things are getting smaller and smaller. I use them for work, and purchase new ones each month. These external HD units are easy to carry anywhere and significantly increase the overall capacity of laptops and tablets.

Compact, lightweight, discreet, reliable, compatible for Mac & Windows

SMALL AND PORTABLE SSD. DOESN'T TAKE UP MUCH SPACE AND WORKS WELL. PRETTY QUICK UPLOAD AND DOWNLOAD SPEED.

This portable hard drive is so much better than my older one, for one it is smaller. This unit is solid state and has twice the storage space. I also like that it more durable due to the unit being solid state and it also costs less than my first one that I had bought from Best Buy.

Man is this baby small and light. It was smaller and lighter than I thought from looking at the photo / reading the description. My Mac automatically detected it. Super fast, and a perfect combination with my 2015 MacBook Pro which I use as a photo editing machine. Nice place to safely store my thousands of photos / music / docs. BestBuy N Canton is the best!

Incredibly small external hard was easily attached to my laptop cover via Velcro. It operates reliably and transfers data quickly despite its minuscule size. I would buy another if the need arises.

Can't complain one bit about this SSD. It is small and compact and is pretty fast for an external SSD. The price is what gets me though! I can't believe how cheap I got this for what it is. It works great for bulk storage or to transfer files.

I used this had disk for last 6 months. This very light weight and more compact. The data transfer is faster other my earlier external hard disk. This very much worth.

Portable. Easy to use. No issues with storage. Recommended.

I added this tiny external SSD to a 2013 iMac USB 3.0 port to act as the main boot drive (the original drive was a spinner hard disk). I did not want to rip the iMac apart to install an internal blade SSD if I did not have to do so. The boot and response time is noticeably very much faster, and that was the result I was looking for. I don't know what the actual transfer speed is, but any modern SSD will run (and probably exceed) the USB 3.0 bus speed ceiling, and I'm sure this one does too. There is no point going to a high end super fast NvMe drive (for example) when any extra speed would be bus limited. What makes this particular item appealing is the very small size and the Western Digital brand name. WD makes quality drives. I am able to rubber band this to the back of the iMac stand to make it invisible from the front, so you don't even see it. It could also be taped to the back of the iMac shell to also remain out of view. There is enough cord to allow full movement of the screen angle adjustment without binding. So, as this small SSD met all of my requirements, and greatly speed up an aging computer, I can recommend this product without hesitation. It would also be great for a traveling back-up for a laptop too. Another advantage is if it should fail, you can just swap in a new drive (assuming you are maintaining a data back-up) without having to open the sealed iMac case (again).

Nice and compact. Works great for my personal use. Fast and accurate data transfer.

SSD makes the drive smaller, lighter than the other disk portable drives I bought. A noticeable difference with faster speed for the external drive when using a virtual machine (Oracle VirtualBox).

SSD drives are the way to go. This drive I bought is fast, half the size of 1 TB compact portable HHD and 1/4 the weight of the 1 TB compact HHD. LOVE IT! I only wish they were less expensive.

This is a great ssd option if you're not looking for a top of the line wd-black model. It's really small, especially for storing 1tb, and super reliable. I would recommend it to anyone on the go.

Very fast performance with a non-invasive size in terms of space taken up on desk. Great value and performance

fast storage on my month vacation last july 2023. speed, portability, easy storage. i will buy another every year trip were gonna have.

Nice little drive, super small and light. Fast transfer speeds and a really good price imo. WD products last a long time.

Easy to use. Quickly download & store files as needed. Good system backup disk. Small size makes it easy to transport

Small, durable, and powerful. I got this this for almost half off at $60.99, can't beat that price for anything similar, it was a great deal.
