    I needed a back up for my media server. Works perfectly. Decent transfer speeds. Reliable drive. This is my second easystore. The name really does sum it up.

    Got it at an excellent price. Drive worked great at first but now it no longer is recognized by my computer. I've had multiple drives from WD and no problems until now. I'm hoping I can somehow save my data from it.

    I have 4 of these. Each has traveled to work and back to save projects. One even has the case broken, but still works as it should. Western Digital makes great stuff.

    For transferring large files

    As an external drive it is not the fastest, but it is very useful to transfer large files from one computer to another. I mainly use to back up home videos and family photos.

    Great drive. Internals and specs are comparable to the WD MyPassport Ultra, so speeds and quality are about as good as you can expect for a portable mechanical hard drive.

    Great drive and value. Works for archiving and general purpose. A bit slow by today’s standards, but you get a great bang for the buck on this one. Recommend!

    This has been running well with no issues since purchased in November. Games running from drive seem no slower than internal drive. I run off USB port on PS4 Pro. Love it!

    The WD Easystore 4TB drive makes an excellent backup drive. I copy all my documents and photos on this drive so that I have a copy in case of a computer crash.

    Thanks to BestBuy for this offer price. So far no issues with this drive. Pretty good speed in data transfer. I did transfer 20gb photos from my Mac and it took 8-10 mins.

    Fast Drive

    The drive is much faster than the previous WD external drive I've been using, and I would recommend it in a heart beat. I'm glad the USB stick was included because I would not have purchased it. It appears fragile, cheaply made, and I don't think it's up to the challenge of the my older USB stick was.

    Was told I needed to back up my data from my laptop, I asked the Geek Squad what they would use on their laptop, and everyone suggested this one. I agree.

    I didn't look close enough at this to realize the power source was USB. I would have preferred and external source but this is working fine for my needs.

    good price. be careful how u handle it. if u move while its plug. its possible to crash the drive and lose all data. since its small and portable. its both good and bad. u can easily bump it while it's pluged. be careful
