    Very satisfied with this purchase. The drive is small, light, packable and incredibly easy to use. Perfect amount of space. Would recommend this to anyone who asks.

    WD 2TB Easystore Portable HD does what I wanted, to back up my computer HD. It hs a slight vibration, but after putting it to the test for 36 hours of continuous use shows no signs of failing. A word of caution about downloading the WD recommended back-up software (from A*****) ; it installed adware/bloatware on my computer before I even unzipped the files.

    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!

    This is just cheap insurance for your files, photos, documents, etc. I have purchased three of these wd drives in different sizes. 2tb is more than I need in general but it's so cheap and easy, might as well take the extra space.

    A little confusing at first since it seems like you need to sign up for some account, but actually you can start using it right away and it is indeed very easy :) Saved me right before my laptop's fan went out!

    These things are great. I always find myself needing more because I am a hoarder both physically and digitally. My only complaint is that I've gotten larger external drives for less money. Inflation is killing the price of data storage.

    After losing lots of information on my last computer, this is going to save me! I thought I backed everything up on google before it crashed, but I cant find my files! As I recreate or eventually locate them, I will save them here.

    I am using this as additional storage for my PS4 after hearing good things and, so far I don't have any complaints! Has worked very well. I do recommend waiting until it goes on sale because that happens decently often.

    Very easy to use. Plug and play at it's finest. Very handy to store data on instead of on main computer. When it is not connected to a computer, the data is air-gapped which provides excellent security. Great value for the money.
