    This is the 5th one of these we have purchased for the office over the past few years, WD is superior to Seagate in our experience. We have never had a single issue with one of the Easystore drives. This was on sale and a great deal. Highly recommended.

    I was able to get this external hard drive as a Black Friday deal for about 50% off, which was an unreal price. The amount of storage is amazing. I had a little trouble getting started, but my laptop is rather old, still operating on Windows 8, and full to the brim with photos (I’m a photographer). It did take a LONG time to transfer everything to the hard drive. I think it took 7-8 hours. But it worked great, was easy to use overall, and I think will be even simpler each time in smaller, frequent quantities. Very happy with this purchase! And picking it up from my local Best Buy was easy and painless.

    I use this as the external drive for my PS4. I needed a drive that was big and cheap and this fit the bill. It is used every day and it's still working perfectly! It's small too

    had a old backup that suddenly went dead. Found the perfect solution by purchasing this item: smaller, has more storage room, and works great. Highly recommend it!

    Easy to use right out of the box. I have another hard drive that got formatted to windows (Mac user) and I was unable to write to it anymore. I picked this hard drive up and it was perfect. I was able to move my data over quickly and efficiently.

    Poor Western Digital Support

    I bought this drive for medical school and it worked really well for the first year. Unfortunately, when there seemed to be a problem with the port and I submitted it for warranty through Western Digital, they refused the claim saying there was "physical damage" to the drive and I had to pay them again just to ship my drive back to me. I am very disappointed because I paid the bigger price for extra storage thinking it would last and I relied heavily on this drive for school. If you don't run into a port problem then this is a great drive.

    Wonderful product! Being cheaper because of not being solid state, but still I have three of these and love ‘em! Size of a wallet almost! Be careful not to format them though unless you get a replacement driver
