Customer Ratings & Reviews

I use this for work. I just plug it into my computer at the office and work. Then I take it with me and I can plug it into my laptop at home and work there. Much easier than carrying my computer back and forth.

This product is fast and i like the performace. I will suggest to my frineds

Works great, no issues with it being an open box item, other than it cost less money than a new in box. :o) Note to Mac users, you’ll need to format the drive with your Disk Utility app before using.

does what what it is supposed to do, hold tons of data. never had issues with western digital and hoping this one works like a charm like my others

Easy to install and a good price Easy to install and a good price

I've used Western Digital hard drives for years and they have been totally reliable. I like these external drives, they're small, lightweight & fast. I highly recommend Western Digital hard drives.

Small 2 TB External USB 3.0 portable hard drive, compact so that can be transported to various sites. large capacity able to handle large files easily.

I purchased this hard drive so I can have extra memory on my PS4. It formated the hard drive and has worked perfectly ever since I plugged it in the Playstation 4. Highly recommend hard drive.

Drive works as described. Very mobile and durable. Plenty of space to back up all my pictures and music. I would recommend it to all who are looking for a small footprint with a large storage

After reading a few negative reviews, I was a bit worried. However, I decided to give it a try, and it worked perfectly - my Mac reformatted it without any fuss, and the Mac started in on its regular Time Machine backup routine. Just what I wanted.

Easy to set up, fasting to transfer data, compact in size. Couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Very easy to use. Very convenient to swap between several pc's for file or photo backup purposes. Would recommend to anyone needing a alternative storage solution. Not sure how long it is supposed to last under general usage, so not able to verify a 5 star rating yet.

It's a good size, easily portable, and the transfer speed is pretty fast. Haven't had any connection or recognition issues yet, although it seems quite common from the other older HD I have.. Just be careful not to apply too much pressure on the cable connector as these cables are not easy to find.

Excellent portable drive with plenty of space for backing up PC. Good value, easy to install. Wasn't available in store but was shipped to my home next day.

This product between the price point and the user friendly of this product it's a must have for anyone from business use to personal I have no complaints on this product would recommend it to anyone

There's nothing flashy about a hard drive. All I can say is that it is plug and play via included usb cable and 2TB is a decent amount of storage in a compact hard drive. It is new, so I can't comment on long term reliability, but so far so good.

I have another review here about the 5TB one. My great experience from past WD products and that recent 5TB purchase i had, made me buy another one. This was on sale, thus it made good sense to get it. Now I have a great partner for my laptop on the go. Does not drain my laptop power as much that I can still go a full 8 hours on my laptop even with this HDD plugged in. Great value!

Very good brand of hard drives. If not, it is the best. Very trustful. 2tb is enough space for whatever you want and need. Undoubtedly, it is one of the best external hard drives. Perfect size. Buy it without hesitation. Will not disappoint you.

Extremely easy to use and saves computer space for work and school

Perfect for the timeline drive for my MacBook. Steady, fast, and above dependable
