    I use this primarily as my backup drive for my MBP and Surface Pro laptops. It also travels extensively with me. Very reliable and doesn't take up much space. USB 3, gen 1, plenty fast for me. More importantly, both laptops cab power it without a problem. I also purchased a 2 TB model fir the Dush receiver in my coach. Receiver powers it too, even though Dish warned it wouldn't. Very happy.

    4tb gives me lots of storage. On my mac I partitioned it so I would have several drives. One is a time machine backup, one is bootable drive, and others are storage from other drives. I like the size, about the size of a deck of cards. Portable, powered off the USB port. It was on sale for $70 and had a $10 reward certificate, so $69 for 4tb. Great deal

    I originally went to purchase a 3T backup , but the 4T was so reasonably priced I could not resist. I had 81 hours of video to backup and this fit the bill.

    In my opinion there’s no better way to protect all your files than with a portable back up drive. This is the third back up drive that I’ve bought in the past 10 years. I’ve never used Easy Store brand before, but so far it has been just that, EASY. I love that it is 4 TB and I’m sure I will be using it for many years to come.

    I bought my boyfriend an Xbox OneS for Christmas. He was quickly nearing the 100% full memory mark on his 256GB Xbox. I bought the WD 4 TB external hard drive for him and we haven't looked back since! It was easy to install (USB) and super easy to use! It gives us more than enough storage space and was super affordable! If you are just wanting storage for a game console, this is the one!

    It's a great item with plenty of storage for large files. I use it primarily for storing uncompressed videos and photos which take up a lot of hard drive space. My only complaint is that it's a bit thicker than 1 and 2 TB models, but I suppose that is to be expected. Great product!

    Great little Hard Drive

    This thing packs a big punch for a little package. For 4TB, it is incredibly small, the price is right. It isnt the fastest drive, but it does not have a separate power source, so that is to be expected. The only thing to be aware of is that the USB connector is unique. You can get similar ones on Amazon, etc., but just be aware that you cannot use any old USB cable.

    I love this little hard drive. It self powers itself through the USB slot and runs great so far. Portable hard drives have come a long way, it amazes me that they can fit 4tb into a hard drive thats slightly bigger than a wallet. Western digital hard drives have been solid for me over the last few years and its been a long time since i've had one fail. I would highly recommend this product.
