    The drive has been working well for me over the past few months. Good price for the space.

    I have purchased 4TB drives in the past and they have all required a separate power supply, this is the first large HD that I have purchased that did not require one. It is a solid brand and a large drive in a small size, a great buy.

    Actually really surprised how easy it was to set up and run. Not much more than 5-10 min. Space is more than enough, and price was stellar.

    Excellent portable hard drive

    Would recommend to those seeking a new hard drive that is portable and more storage room. Bought this at half off the original price of 199 for 4tb. It not bad, but a bit too pricey for me. Was eager to buy it now at the promotion best buy member only gets and you have to buy this online only. Bought this to free up my ps4 console and at this size it definitely give room to your ps4 and your mind a set of space to breath easily. Was going to get a 6tb but didnt find one and this 4tb is only exclusive to best buy. I like that it is portable and only charge or power on by a usb cable. which is a big plus. As for data write/read speed i can't complain it does it what its suppose to do. I love the 4tb size and it is fairly more than enough to store those game updates to game downloads. Would recommend it to those who wants something portable, compact and large amount of storage space. Oh this is not my first WD hdd.

    I purchased this on sale @ BB for $109.99. Excellent value for a portable 4TB HD, and WD drives are high quality. If you own a Mac, reformat it first in HFS+ using the WD utilities software that comes with the HD. I highly recommend it!

    I own a 2TB easystore that I bought 2 yrs ago (still works perfect)and now a 4TB WD easystore. What I like the most about this drives is the compact size,durability,no ac adapter and no reformatting (unless you wanna use it for Mac or Ps4),just plug and play and you are ready to go. I used to own Seagate products but they always broke on me, I try WD products and havent had an issue yet...

    I bought this to use for the extremely large games on the xbox one x. This works great, seems to load fast and had no issues connecting to the xbox. Its very small and is hidden behind my Xbox. I may buy another for my other Xbox One.

    I’ve always had good luck with the WD drives, so when I saw this drive on sale for less than $100 for 4TB, it was a no brainer. Plenty of space for my needs.

    Got this WD external 4TB drive to replace an aging 2.5 TB external drive. So far it has performed very well. It does not heat up and the transfer of data is good. I like the fact with the bigger size drive you don't need an external power supply. I also got it on sale which was a nice deal.

    A good, standard backup external drive for Macs in particular: simple, quick connection, good speed, and large enough to handle multiple Time Machine backups.

    Not much to say other than this external drive does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I use it to back up another 1TB drive and it works flawlessly. Highly recommend.

    I've only had this a month so I can't comment on longevity, but I can say it was super easy to install and it works well. I'm using it as a backup storage drive and it backed up my files much faster than my USB 2.0 drive used to.
