    This is the third Western Digital portable hard drive that I have purchased over the years, each larger in storage size than the last. They have gone back and forth to work with me, traveled with me, and taken a great deal of abuse. Yet they reliably chug on. The oldest one can run a bit warm and just a tad noisy. But it remains a workhorse nearly a decade after I bought it. I also use a WD external desk top model for my desk top computer. All in all, I have found WD products to be rock solid.

    When I got this portable high drive I first used it to back up my files and photos on my computer before wiping in clean and reinstalling Windows. Transfers speed was fast due to 3.0. Once I placed everything back on my laptop I wiped the hard drive clean to format and use for my xbox one as additional storage. I have about 400 plus games on my hard drive now and only about 40% of the drive has been used. Easy to set up and use and got it when it was on sale.

    Decent Hard Drive

    For what it is, it seems pretty decent at the sale price. 4TB is a fair amount of storage for a portable drive, although it does seem a little slow. Despite it's stated 5GB throughput rating, it is MUCH slower than that and I suspect part of the reason is the rotation speed. There are no published specs that I can find, but it performs like a 4800-5400 RPM drive, and I'm considering disassembly to see if there is anything on the drive label that gives better specs. My biggest complaint is with the warranty, HDDs *used* to have a 3 year warranty from the big name manufacturers, now they only have a 2 year warranty or less. This is horrible as it allows manufacturers to use cheaper components with shorter lifespans and not worry about how well it is actually built and performing.

    I use this WD drive for backups. It's been 100% reliable so far, absolutely no problems whatsoever. I can confidently recommend this item based on my experience. WD drives have served me very well for years.

    I bought one for my computer files and one for my Xbox One, both are working great. I bought these because they didn't come with additional backup software so they're a great price. However, if you feel you need backup software to make the process easier for you, would recommend one of the higher models. If you're cool with dragging and dropping the files yourself, or if you're using this for a game console (which usually delete any additional backup software anyway), these are perfect.
