Large convenient storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I've been pleased with the WD Easystore 4GB hard drive. I needed some space for backups and this fits the bill. It should last me quite some time to fill it up and it has decent read/write speeds. When I purchased this device it was cheaper than a separate WD 4GB Red drive so it was a no brainer. If you want something to plug and play then this is for you. It's always great to make backups of your important data and this should work nicely.

Great for PS4 storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this hard drive to use on my PS4 as external storage. I had filled up the 500G internal hard drive of my PS4 and wanted a way to expand the storage space. I decided to get an external HD and this 4Tb drive works perfectly. It was really easy to set up and works better than I expected.

Good Hard Drive at the Right Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to learn the hard way, to back up my computer's hard drive, after a catastrophic failure recently. So I visited my local Best Buy where I found this little beauty - plenty of space, at a reasonable price. Now I'm using it for Time Machine backups on both of my computers, and breathing easier for it.

Pretty good for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I decided to upgrade my Xbox One storage capacity with an external hard drive and this HD fit the bill nicely. For the amount of storage you get, it's not a bad price at all, and since you don't need to use encryption if you're using this with a console, it's the perfect hard drive for the job.

WDD external HDD
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quick purchase to transfer my contents from old desktop and laptop to a central location. In addition, am using it to backup images of new laptop for school/work. So far no complaints and actually glad I bought it. Accidentally erased new laptop hard drive when trying to wipe old laptop hard drive. Backup image reinstalled in about an 30 minutes and as if nothing happened. It's still about a month old, so time will tell on quality and longevity of product.
