    The drive is very compact, easy to install and backups are easy to set up. Small size makes portability very convenient.

    Great product and super service from the folks at Best Buy. Wanted to get away from paying for a backup service and this did the trick.

    Very small device and plugs right into the PS4. Easy way to expand storage and allow more games to be stored.

    This is the fourth WD portable storage drive I've purchased; all have been easy to use. Where other devices have failed, WD has been the most reliable.

    My HP desktop had a catastrophic hard drive failure and the backup hard drive I'd been using with it for a while failed to back up my data properly. So, I decided to purchase this WD easystore 1TB drive at my local Best Buy. It was on sale and a good price with a Rewards discount, so I went with it. The set up was quite easy and the software has been quite inobtrusive (unlike the other one, which was always bugging me with updates and reminders). I set it up to backup my system once a week and haven't had any issues so far.

    This is one of couple of external drives purchased for the use as a backup drive for recent new builds. I've found using external drives by WD the best option.

    My HP laptop was serviced in one day. It now works fine as I has overloaded it when my desktop PC has to be replaced. Data was backed up to a portable external hard drive.

    I was nervous about uploading my life onto one of these things but I’ve been really impressed! The only thing is that it’s loud when plugged in, like an old computer when it’s “breathing”

    I have no issues with this hard drive. If you don't want to pay for a bigger brand name device, you'll get everything you need from this. It's easy to encrypt just as any other drive.
