    My Xbox One 500 GB storage was approaching 90%. I needed a way to expand my storage in a cost effective way. This unit was only $20 more than the 1TB version so I chose this one. I just plugged it into a USB 3 port and instantly jumped my storage up to 2 TB.

    Item arrived quickly and in excellent condition. Love WD products - own several and find them dependable and long lasting. This WD 2 TB portable hard drive is perfect! Easy setup and extremely portable.

    I have used their products in the past. This is being used as additional storage for my PlayStation 4. Easy to use, just connect the cable to the PlayStation and the other to the disc drive. Follow the prompts on the screen, a few controller clicks later, you're all set.

    The WD Easystore's have always been my go-to for hard drives, mostly because they're always in stock at my Best Buy. These are as great of an option as anything else I'd find on Amazon or some other tech stores. And they're constantly on sale, if you sign up for BestBuys email then you're basically guaranteed to see one of these on sale at least once a week. This isn't a fault of WD specifically but moreso the whole external drive industry. For the love of God, please switch over to USB-C already. The stupid Micro-USB sibling that they all use today hasn't been a broadly used port since the Galaxy S5. The $2 price hike to implement that port instead is more than worth it for consumers and its more likely someone would have a USB-C port lying around if they lost the included one than the stupid on they have now.

    So I bought this to plug into an old Mac Mini for backups. I thought I could plug it in, reformat to a Mac file system format and I'd be on my way! Wrong! So look up how to format it for your particular version of the macOS on youtube before you start out. The key is that you might have to hit erase twice in Disk Utility.

    I purchased this for my boyfriend's PS4 for extra storage, based on other reviewers who said it worked. Glad I did. All you do is plug it in and you're good to go. The Playstation asks you to finalize the storage choice and that's it. I plan on purchasing an additional unit for my son's Xbox One. No more uninstalling games!

    As a fellowship director, I control the media output. I decided that the best thing to do was to digitize all the gospel sermons and that an external harddrive was the best way to go. I purchased this one at Best Buy and it is more than enough storage space than what it was purchased for. I highly recommend this product.

    These portable units are great. Besides reliability and copious amounts of space at a good price, it is quite convenient that they only need one cable ... drawing the needed power from the USB connection.

    Good value if fast transfer speed not required

    The WD 2TB External HD is good value for money, especially if transfer speed/time is not an important requirement. For example, I backup my MacBook Pro (MBP) to the WD 2TB HD every night using Time Machine (TM). I set the TM backup process in motion and generally don't use my MBP much until early next morning. So, for me, transfer speed is not a critical requirement.
