Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

I use it to store PS4 and PS5 games on my PS5 to save space internally. It does as it should and reads the games efficiently. Might need more space down the road but this is suffice enough.

The drive has performed well with no issues. Fast transfer speeds and I've had an easy time loading it with media files. Only weird thing is the software not being compatible with the Easystore product line.

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

I have been using for months now as an external for my Mac for Premiere Pro projects. Fast saving and keeps my processing fast by not having saved files on the machine for caching issues. Small and easily accessible.

After running out of room on all my other external HD's, I bought this because of its capacity. It is amazingly small and the price was reasonable. Very glad I bought it.

I have quite a few of them - I do a lot of traveling and 4K video. This drive is perfect for traveling, it is fast, small size, reliable. Perfect to back up large files.

Very good external drive; compact; and easy to use for a reasonable price.

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

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

lots space storage capacity easy to use works continuously to back up files

I need it more hard drive space to back up my audio, pictures and video files, that I couldn't let the opportunity pass me by, I bought on sale and enjoy the ease of operation, just plug and play. DLC

Bought this for my son's X-Box because the game's 500GB was used up in less than a year. Super easy to connect via USB port and the small profile sits behind the X-Box out of sight. I was going to buy the green X-Box storage unit, but I now have twice the storage for less $$$.

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

I purchased this external drive for use on my new Xbox One X. Not only is the additional 4TB of storage great to have but this USB 3.0 drive does not require an external power sorce to turn it on while others do. I will be buying another one when I need the additional storage.

I bought this specifically for the purpose of expanding my storage space. I quickly ran into storage problems with my PS4 and had to keep deleting to make space. Sony finally allowed for external hard drive support and this has been working phenomenally. I also got it when it was on sale which was just icing on the cake. If you need to expand the storage of your PS4 this series of hard drives are compact and easy to use.

I have multiple WD external drives and will pick one up if I see one at a good price - this was about the price of a previous 2TB purchase so happy about that - with increasing file sizes (pics, videos, etc) I always seem to be on the lookout for additional back-up storage.

Bought this to use with my other Western Digital HD for my Xbox One X. Got this for $100, which seemed like a good deal to me. HD is so small and sleek. Love it and transfer speeds seem fast enough. On my way to pick up my Xbox One X tonight with my 9 TB of external storage.

This is just what I needed... it was so easy to connect this to my laptop... so for ease of comfort I have to say 10 plus.. and it's fast I mean really fast.

I purchased this drive for use an external HDD with my Nvidia shield. I was concerned that the lack of SSD might prove too slow, but the tested read/write speeds are fine and seem to be comparable to the internal drive that comes with the device. The reason I've given it 4 rather than 5 stars is that occasionally when set as an external (rather than expandable) drive, the drive will shut off and it takes a bit for it to wake/be recognized by the shield.
