    This is the perfect form factor for extra storage. 4 TB is ideal for storage of pictures or home videos. The unit is powered by the USB port and not be an external adapter. Great price point on the sale.

    Used this for Ps4pro game storage, have over 90 games installed and loads at least as fast as the internal 1TB I used this to bring my game library to the PS5, worked slick and saved HUGE amounts of download time.

    Small but holds a LOT of stuff! :-) Easy to use software, enough space to backup ALL of my other drives, "set it and forget it" peace of mind. A great purchase at a great sale price, thanks Best Buy! :-)

    I bought this to use as extended storage for my PS4 and so far it's worked flawlessly. I also have a 2 TB in the same model that I've used for over a year and a half with no issues.

    This is a great drive in a small package. I use it as external storage for my game console and it works great! It provides a lot of room and no additional power supply is required. Very portable!

    The WD Easystore 4TB External USB Portable Hard Drives are my favorite external drives. I format it to be ExFat so I can use with Apple and Microsoft devices. Perfect for keeping 4k footage and housing Adobe projects.

    Love these portable 4tb drives. I don't have to worry about hooking them up to power source and they are small enough to store multiple of these in a drawer or some small chest. Good speeds on these drives too.

    Love this EasyStore from WD! I've always been happy with WD products and this one is the best yet - love the portability and since I wanted just an external w/o the extra software options, I just deleted all of that. Been using it regularly since the day I opened it and it's everything it says and then some.

    Offers a lot of protection. Tight squeeze for the surfave pro, especially with microsoft pen attached. The pocket doesn't leave room for much other than a set of earbuds, a USB-C charger (surface charger is super bulky) and the Microsoft arc mouse (hoghly recommend!). Would suggest the compay add a small handle to carry and it would add a bit more to love. Overall solid

    Bought this to store my Lightroom library as my other external hard drives were at capacity and I wanted to merge library into a single hard drive. Transferred over 10k photos and all went without any hiccups. Drive has worked perfectly!

    I been interested in buying an external hard drive for my PS4. I found this affordable item on Black Friday. The set up is quite easy, connect the usb cable to device, then plug into PS4. The PS4 will reformat it and boom it is now part of my PS4. Performance is very good. Transfer speed seems quite fast.

    My MacBook pro hard disk died unexpectedly, it was 2TB and my back up time capsule had only 1TB, there was no way to back it up via time machine and I lost everything. I reformated and connected this disk via USB to my Airport Base station and in minutes my time machine could do what it is suppose to do.

    WD is a trusted brand that I trust. I needed yet another one for my many computer back-ups. I am both a PC and Mac user, so this one allows me to partition both OS's. Overall, I liked the price and appreciate the BB deals on this one.
