    I purchased this drive with the intention of using it a number of locations so it had to be very portable which it is. The small size makes it easy to transport and the large 4tb capacity makes it ideal for storing large projects on the drive. A very good deal.

    I now have a couple of these 4TB gems in my collection. They are simple to use and easy to bring along. I have paired them with my MacBook to give me copious storage options on the go.

    I got this to replace smaller capacity drives. I just use it to back up pictures from my desktop. As far as I can tell, it is as described. I just plug it in and use it. Got it on sale .... a great price.

    The wD EasyStore drive is physically small enough but will hold enough data to make it convenient for laptop backups. I was pitting back ups off as I would have to unstore my larger drive and holder. The included backup software was easy to set up and use.

    This is my second WD external drive. The first one has been backing up my system twice a day for the last 2 years without a glitch. This new one will be used for media on a PLEX server. These drives are easy to set up, small footprint and very dependable.

    Good quantity of storage for lesser price. I bought other external hard disks but got corrupted in less than 2 years. But WD is the reliable and I am using since more than 9 years(that is 250gb hard disk). I see performance of this hard disk is good.

    Got this to replace an old 1TB drive. At 4TB, this has a lot more storage capacity; But is smaller. I like that I can carry all my backup files with me if needed. Works just like my internal drive when using usb 3,0 slot. Great price and fast delivery !

    This external drive is a must have. Either for storing/backing up large/lots of files or for moving files between machines. It is not too large physically and feels nice in the hand.

    I got this drive to use as additional storage for my Xbox One. It does the job. I plugged it in an available USB port, and it instantly prompted me that new drive space was available. It had to format the drive, but I bought it for that purpose so I was ok with that. (Tip: save the pre-loaded software that comes with the drive to a flash drive before formatting it. If something goes wrong with it, that software may be able to recover it.) After that format process was done, I had additional storage on my console. Games load up fast enough and I have 3.5TBs of additional space. That's my only conn with the drive. As a new windows formatted drive I had 3.8 TB's of space. On my xbox I have 3.5. Both far less than 4TB but that's how drives have always been I guess. Still upsetting tho; 1/2TB's is a lot of space to give up. Other than that, I'm happy.
