Customers are saying

Customers commend the Easystore 2TB USB 3.0 External Portable Hard Drive for its ample storage, ease of use, reliability, compact size, and reasonable price. Many appreciate its compatibility with devices like the PS4 and its simple setup process. While some users find the lack of additional software and minimal noise appealing, these aspects are mentioned far less frequently than the drive's primary benefits. Overall, the positive attributes of storage, usability, and reliability appear to be the most prominent features in customer feedback.

    very easy to use and compact. I had an old one that has less storage. Decided to get this one especially because it was on sale. I don't regret it. It's small enough to take with you if needed and works great.

    I recently had a major anxiety attack as my old computers were having issues I was worried about losing data stored on these old computers over the years. A helpful tea support person at Best Buy suggested I try this easy to use external, portable hard drive. He was able to locate and store all of my photos from four old computers onto one 2TB external drive! I could finally breathe easy again. I think everyone should have one or more of these!

    I literally plugged it in to my iMac, went to the Disk Utility application, selected this external hard drive, selected erase and then it prompts you to rename this external hard drive and then I reformatted it as journaled. It took about 1 minute to reformat. After that I selected to use as my time machine back up and then it all started backing up my iMac--which took about 4 hours (maybe less) to complete. Pretty simple and I like it's size and how the little tabs underneath help it from slipping on my desk. Now I sit, wait and hope I get many years with this product.

    Needed some extra storage to backup my desktop pc and I've always had good luck with Western Digital. Best Buy had the WD Easystore 2TB External Hard Drive on sale and I decided to give it a try. It's small, very light and connects directly to my PC with a 3.0 USB cable. No external power cords to mess with and it came with Western Digital backup software at no additional charge. It runs in the background and after you can program it to backup your everything the first time and after that it will only backup files and folders that are new or have been altered. I've had it for a month and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommend this product.

    I used to have a 500gb drive and stored all my files and pictures of cats. It was almost full. Then due to the horrors of moving every 2 seconds, it was damaged. How will will I store more pics of animals doing human things now? 2TB?! Works great. Lots of storage for all of your memes, Soundcloud tracks and personal fanfics. A good price and also with other storage sizes if you indeed need more storage for big videos of your pet sleeping. WD has been a trusted storage name for me for a while. Would save cat pics in again.
