    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.

    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.

    No issues, quick transfer and stable. I use a lot of hard drives in my industry and this is one of the better ones you can buy for the price. Always stable, transfer speeds are good, just a reliable all-around external Hard Drive.

    I have used WD previously and after programming it to my MacBook Time machine, it works great. I bought it as a gift but then returned it for a 5TB advertised at the same price.

    Bought this during $79.99 sale. Incredible value for the storage space. Got it for my Xbox One X, plug and play works great. Love that you get such a large amount of storage and it is USB powered only, no external power needed.

    I chose WD for a reason!

    Preface: I already owned two WD My Passport drives previous to purchasing the Easystore 4TB drive. I have our Photos library migrated on my iMac to the external usb hard drive. My wife takes hundreds of photos on the daily and our 1TB My Passport was filling up quickly, so I purchased this drive for the extra store. I have had bad experiences with Seagate, Lacie and Toshiba in the past so I stick with Western Digital now FOR A REASON. I would give this drive 5 stars, but for some reason, I had a hard time getting my iMac to recognize it in the first place! honestly, I'm not sure what I even did to get it to see the drive, but somehow it finally did. Now I have my Photos and iTunes library exported onto the drive, freeing up countless gigabytes on my 2011 iMac. I purchased this drive for one hundred bones, and don't regret it. It was and still is a great deal. Don't hesitate!

    I bought the WD 4TB Portable Hard Drive to back up several other storage devices. I hooked it up and it swallowed 3.50TB of data without so much as a belch. I now have all of my archived data in one, easily accessible, place.
