    Needed additional storage and this was perfect. The sale price was a factor and allowed we to get more storage for less money. Small and easy to use.

    Bought for photo storage as I shoot a lot of pictures. This drive was easy to set up and get into service. I have no issue with transferring files to the drive. Nice and small, fits on my desk.

    I bought this for my PS4 and it stores all the games i have. I did upgrade to a PS5 and, besides some initial issues with set up, it was pretty much just plugging it in and you could play all your PS4 games without having to re-download. However, dont put this on top of your console and you might have to keep it at a distance. I think its something that all external storage devices cause, not just this one, but this can potentially hinder your consols wifi connection. If i had it right on top of my PS4 or too close, the wifi would disconnect constantly. Not having the same issue on the PS5 though. Hopefully you can get this when its on sale for $60 US, otherwise you'd be spending too much on the base price. Like SD cards, these are constantly going on sale, and the price of storage goes down over the years.

    Great add on for my son's PC. We moved all his steam games to this drive. It is quick and responsive allowing his system resources to use his main SSD for necessities.

    I bought this external hard drives to use as additional storage for both my PS4 and Xbox One. The setup was easy and only requires a quick format by navigating through each consoles respective settings. They are particularly handy since they do not require their own power source. It's really too soon for me to remark about durability and drive longevity, but speaking as one who has put together several PCs from individual components, sometimes hard drives fail but this really should only be the case after several years.

    I needed to transfer alot of files and preferably quickly. This was a great find. Availble in store and cheaper than other 1TB options. Sleek modern look. Fits into laptop sleeve pocket nice. Pro Tip: pin the external drive to your “quick access” bar if youre using windows and it makes dragging and dropping files SO much quicker.

    Needed a hard drive to back up files on my laptop. Opted for an HDD rather than an SSD. Even though packaging indicate minimum system requirements are Windows 8.1 or Windows 10, my Windows 7 (Pro) system recognized it without any extra effort, i.e., no additional drivers or tweaking some setting. I have since replaced Windows 7 with Windows 10 on my laptop. Just plugged the drive in and it was recognized by Win 10 and I was able to open files and copy files to it. Got it on sale for $60.

    It is great little Hard Drive. Have plugged it into two different computers with no issue. Works great with only one issue. My main computer tried to restart while the Portable Hard Drive was plugged in. My computer kept shutting off until I finally realized that it was the Portable Hard Drive. After I unplugged it and started my computer I did not have any issues after that. Will need to remember that when I am done with the Portable Hard Drive I will need to unplug it to continue using my computer.

    The price was right, and with 2TB, plenty of back up for 2 computers for years to come. Reviews recommend higher priced ones for speed, but what could be faster than instant? One folder of 860 pictures (2.87gb) copied instantly from the computer to the WD drive. I prefer more controlled drag and drop rather than uploading and downloading via software. Copy and transfer of 33,045 (96gb) pictures, 1,005 (156mb) music files and 810 (457mb) documents took about 20 minutes.
