    Great external HD for storing photos, documents, backing up your computer, etc. I love everything except that in order to save data to the drive WD requires a software install, which isn't a big deal, I just wish I didn't have to.

    Needed additional storage for my PS4. This fits the bill perfectly. Always have enjoyed Western Digital products. Set up was easy. Couldn't have asked for more. More storage and a reliable hard drive for my games and media. Two thumbs up.

    I liked this Western digital external over the others because of the rounded corners. Very convenient size and easy to store on top of the tower case that I have.

    WD - Easystore 2TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard

    The 2TB External Western Digital hard drive works flawlessly. You plug it into a USB slot, Windows recognized it, loads drivers and asks what you want to do. Typically you select view files. Then using File Explorer, you copy or move files or folders onto the drive. With USB 3.0, it's very fast -- a tenth the time of burning and verifying DVDs.

    I bought this drive to provide external storage for my new Xbox One X, for music, videos, etc. Installation was easy - just plugged it in. The Xbox immediately recognized it. There was no need to do anything else! I have been using WD external drives for over 20 years, and not once have had any kind of problem. For those looking to expand the drive capacity of their Xbox One X (or S), I strongly recommend this unit.

    Bought this to back up laptop. But instead hooked it up to my Tablo for more storage to record Tv shows. Glad to have more space to record movies.
