    Very portable hard drive, and quite small. I paid about $50 for on 1T. In the old days, that would’ve cost me several hundred dollars for a big bulky hard drive. I recommend this product.

    SSD backup

    I have two SSDs, this one and the other by Samsung as the backup. I had some difficulty installing the included software on my two laptops: 1) installed on one laptop after two attempts and 2) I was unable to install on this laptop but am able to still the SSD. I learned the hard way that one should always have a backup incase the unexpected happens. The speed of the WD is extremely fast, hopefully it holds up for the 10 yr lifespan. Purpose, to hold my movies, pdf books and a lifetime of photos.

    Best Buy techs are the best. They are knowledgeable, professional, efficient, but best of all friendly. No question is too small or unimportant. Every task gets their best response.

    I bought this to expand my PS4 storage. It is very small (about men's wallet size) and extremely easy to set up and use. In my case, I had to have the PS4 format the drive, but the drive itself was recognized instantly. I've seen no speed difference between internal storage and this drive even though I have the game storage switched to the external drive. An excellent peripheral for external backups and mobile projects (dev work, graphics, etc.)
