Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

I was surprised at how small this drive is. Yet it still holds 4 TB (before formatting). Makes it easy to create a backup and store it in a safe until my next backup update.

Easy setup and formatting. I use this as backup HD for my XBox One. I own three of these in various sizes and use them for my gaming consoles as the HD's are never big enough. Can't speak to any other use for PC's etc.

This external drive is easy to use, lots of space, will definitely be used for a long time to come. It is also very compact in size - fits in one hand, very easy to transport if needed.

Best detachable hard drive I have ever bought would never buy anyone else.

Works really well on the series x, I was able to add so many games with very little difficulty compared to my old hard drive

Perfect for my original Xbox One since it only has 500GB of internal storage. Planning on purchasing the new Xbox One X soon and will be an easy transfer of data with this external hard drive. The best thing is, it's as simple as plugging the USB into the console; no external power source needed.

The WD easystore® 4TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive is a Best Buy exclusive that delivers high functionality at a very low price . This is a very fast, high capacity portable hard drive with backup software included at price comparable to bare bones small capacity drives that don't include any software.

Good quality product works with my PS4. Easy to use plug and play.

Awesome product, easy to use. Would recommend others invest in this product to ensure their data is saved.

Everything has been running smoothly up to this point. I haven’t had any issues.It is very simple and easy to figure out, with a simple YouTube video I was able to install it on my own. I use this for all of my photo shoots.

Bought this for backing up several computers. It’s easy to set up but software is a little buggy. Hangs sometimes on shutdown. Hopefully a new version will come out and solve that problem soon. It is not a fast back up drive. It’s actually fairly slow but it does it’s purpose. Just schedule your backup and let it do it’s thing.

Just what I needed! So far ive been using it for study, and have been dependable as back up

Given the ever increasing size of some PC games these days (Warzone), this has been essential to have in tandem with my smaller SSD. I can run the game from this drive and never have to worry about space again.

I needed a external drive & I wanted one with at least 4-8TB. This one was on sale & I jumped on the opportunity. I haven't used it yet but its sole purpose will be to backup all my PS4 games. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who needs more storage for their consoles or PC.

Works easily with MacBook Pro. It needed erasing as manufacturers packaging had indicated. The box instructions agreed with what I saw on my screen as I set it up and used it immediately after purchase. I've used it daily for a couple of weeks and it is reliable fast and just what I wanted.

This purchase was an afterthought. The price was good enough I would happily pay it. I use this USB external drive to run Linux on a computer that has Windows on its internal hard drive. The dual boot situation has worked well.

Perfect. Use for our newborn pictures to back up. Very fast. Good brand and lots of storage. Brought as recommended from husband’s friend.

Excellent for Retro gaming and storing large volumes of games and Emulators on. Building up an archive of games uses a large volume of space and this holds a good amount. Plug and play works great for what I needed. I always can trust WD.

I haven't bought one of these in over 10 years and I am amazed at how compact and fast they have gotten. Very happy with this purchase since I got it on sale and I feel like I got a great deal for the amount of storage provided. I use it as a backup for my laptop files and the transfer rates seem very good and it's plug and play, very easy to use. Would purchase again and WD is a trusted brand when it comes to these types of devices.
