    The value of this is awesome, bought to it expand my PS5 storage and it has worked like a charm. I can play PS4 games directly from it so I use the extra space on my PS5 strictly for PS5 games. I recommend this product to anyone in the same boat.

    I really like this external hard drive. It's a good size, roughly the size of my hand, and feels sturdy. I am happy to have such a big storage device to back-up my files and make sure I don't lose anything. I got it on sale and feel like it was a great value!

    This is the largest capacity WD easystore drive that I have purchased. Like all my past units this one is quiet and has very large capacity. I have been using easystore for many years and I have never had one fail on me. That is great news. They also give a long guarantee on their products. Can't go wrong buying on of these.

    I bought this external hard drive during Best Buy's month of Black Friday sales. I knew I wanted more space and the 4TB drive was what I needed- when Best Buy dropped the price for the sales, I jumped at it and am so glad I did. WesternDigital is a brand of External Hard Drives that I trust and their Best Buy Exclusive EasyStore model is just as good as anything you would get somewhere else (just without the perks of all the Best Buy rewards points). I'm super pleased with this purchase. It's easy to use and was exactly what I needed

    Bought one for my husband’s PS4 a few months ago. Works great, holds lots of games (he’s downloaded several games and still has loads of room left). Set up was quick and simple. We were so please we purchased another one for our son’s Xbox for Christmas.

    Got this WD drive for $80. 4TB for only $80 plus tax. Based on reivews, average 4.7 to 4.8, this WD drive may be red or not, but if works as described, will be enough storage for me for a decade. Could not beat the price and many like this deal at over $100. Sure, TBs will be less in a year or two, but for now, great deal!

    This was truly plug and play. Already formatted so just plugged it in and it was ready to go. I ran a check disk and there were no bad sectors. I ran an endurance test for 14 hours to make sure it was trustworthy, No errors.

    Western digital drives in either the 4 Tb or 5 Tb size are very reliable and a good value. This one is no exception and an even better deal when you can get it on sale! A very economical way to get a lot of storage space on an HDD.

    So far it works great. Easy to use and it backed up my laptop really fast. Mostly got it for all my pictures but it has plenty of storage space for all my school files, past and current...which is a lot. Ive only had this for a few weeks.

    Hands down the best external storage drive I've used. I have been a fan since my first one in 2012(?). Never had a failure during their useful life. Probably the best value for portable external bulk storage our there. Highly recommend.

    Picked this up as an external hard drive for my ps5. It is perfect for holding my ps4 games. Ps4 games download directly to this device and play directly from this device. At the time it was on sale for $89.99 which is a steal.

    Amazing external drive for Xbox One S

    Having only a 500gb Xbox One S console and all the new AAA releases for Xbox requiring a minimum storage requirement of 50gb each, I quickly ran out of space to download digital and physical copies of games to my console. I purchased this 4tb external during the Black Friday deals for a steal, now giving me more storage than I would ever need to fully enjoy my game library without having to delete other games and wait hours to download and install the games I want to play in the moment. The games start quicker and loading times are decreased drastically by using this 4tb external drive compared to the internal 500gb drive in the console. Highly recommend this external even at regular price as it truly is a convience and makes a world of difference when loading up games and playing without waiting for loading screens.
