    This is a quality, predictable, affordable. easy to use portable storage device I use for back-up and info transport for my laptop. I also am using, at this time, the 4TB version of its and it works well for back-up on my main computer. I'm at a luxury of not needing the fastest and best drive type available therefore, these work very well for me at this point

    Very simple to use seems very solid. Great value great price great quality. What can I say if you're looking for a huge capacity storage external drive this is probably the one. Very easy to set up, just plugged it in and copied my files and I backed up my entire photo file which was about 400 gigs in just a couple hours

    I purchased this hard drive to use with my PS5 and it didn’t disappoint. Easy setup, and works as advertised. Great for backing up those large games.. I’d recommend this for anyone looking to reclaim disk storage space on the PlayStations..

    Works great and is as advertised Only complaint is the drive is not completely empty as it contains a couple of bloatware files for some proprietary software, but those can easily be ignored and deleted if you so wish as the drive is usable without them.

    Perfect for backup or use as an external drive for DVR use. Small compact and powered by the USB port. No external pwr needed. WD is a reliable brand and an easy buy at this price at best buy. Is that a meta?

    Ease of use-very good. Great way to provide a sense of security for all of your applications. Bought the unit on sale, great value. Didn't experience any operational issues. Make sure purchase is for your particular computer's operating system.

    Very ease to use and the best part is that it has 3.0 USB which is so fast and efficient while doing task or transferring data over. I will buy it again and recommend it to a friend without a doubt. Also you can store console games as well.

    I love this extra hard drive I think it’s perfect for storing family photos. It’s easy to use small and compact. There is nothing extravagant about it but it’s exactly what I needed to be able to store in excess of family photos.

    For my first extended drive, I’m very satisfied on having it. Was very easy to install, that a fifth grader can do it. Lastly, the price that I paid for it was just awesome for the amount of storage that it came with.

    Perfect for Mac Backups & Media Storage

    I picked up the Easystore 2TB external hard drive specifically for use with my Mac, and it's been flawless. It connected easily, and after a quick reformat to macOS Extended (Journaled), I had it working as a Time Machine backup drive within minutes. It runs quiet, stays cool, and transfers large files quickly — exactly what I needed for backing up my music projects, videos, and design files from my laser engraver. The build feels solid and reliable. For any Mac user looking for simple, dependable backup storage, this drive is a great deal. Highly recommended.

    This is the second WD 2TB I've purchased from Best Buy. They work great, are small, reliable, and easy to use. We've still got the other from a couple years ago running; just got another because we had more video projects to edit.
