Lots of space for large files
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this drive to store large files such as videos. Compared to my WD My Passport 1TB this Easystore 4TB is thicker thus it’s a much tighter squeeze to get it into the Insignia portable drive case. That being said performance is similar to the My Passport although I think the Easystore may be a little slower on transfer speed. I’m not sure if this is due to internal differences between the two drives or 4TB just has a higher density of disk tracks/sectors to deal with compared to 1TB. Noise wise both drives seem to be fairly quiet. The Easystore comes with a 2 year warranty compared to the 3 year on the My Passport. I hope this doesn’t imply a lower quality standard with the Easystore. The Best Buy bundle including a 32GB USB 3 flash drive with the 4TB Easystore is hard to beat value wise when its on promo sale.

Great external storage device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this on black Friday while it was on sale and the deal was pretty good. Got it for 80 dollars plus a 32 gig USB Stick. This will come in handy when I need the extra storage for my PS4 or being able to transfer important backups on your computer. I've bought several of these over the years and have had no issues.

Very compact and large capacity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It came up on both my Surface and MacBook Pro without a hitch. No other cords required other than just a simple USB cable. It's a full 4TB storage, not like other Easystore drives that sometimes shortchanges the user by a full TB,

Great Little Drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Aside from the poor software, as in stripped down barely useable software provided, this works well. If you just want a large little drive to carry around your stuff and use back-up software from some other source, this works great. Just... don't buy this thinking the software is anything but the barebones it is.

They have worked well
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had a couple of these now and they work as promised. I use them for backups and keep one off-site, the other online. They seem more solid than the passport models. I've got a couple of those also. Performance, I can't tell the difference. The easystore is a little heavier.

Great deal, great drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was in the market for an external hard drive, looking for quality at a good price. When I received this Black Friday Best Buy offer for a WD 4T @ $80, I ordered it as fast as I could type. The 2T's were selling everywhere for $70, so for an additonal $10 I was able to double the capacity. I am a happy customer.

Great for extra storage.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While the Hard drive is a bit heavier than other drives. I am guessing that it is only because it is for a bigger space. Previously, I used a Seagate portable hard drive and I was uneasy about using a new brand but I am very happy with it. I have two of these now.

Easy to use for backup storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This hard drive has worked well with no problems. The drive was purchased after Black Friday online, and was received within a couple of days. I am not using the backup software, as it is not necessary. Files totalling 1 TB were transferred from another portable hard drive easily and relatively quickly.

Seems to be a great find
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an amazingly affordable hard drive with tremendous capacity. You could probably back up content from a few computers in the home on it. I got it in a sale. The low price was unimaginable even a few years ago. Additionally, the device is very compact and quiet. So far it works as advertised.

Small well thought out design.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using this drive for about a month. It is working as all my WD drives since the 1990’s have worked. Dependable so you can sleep at night. I always use multiple backup drives for my digital photos. No WD drives have failed yet. Keep the ruff handling to minimum and they just keep going.

Still using it a year later
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good especially for a ps5 because I use it to store my PS4 games and if I run out of internal space I can transfer ps5 games to it if I don’t want to delete them

Portable Storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my wife who is thinking of retiring to put files & pictures from her work PC on this for future reference. Plugged it into laptop and showed up in windows explore with no issues. It was smaller than what she thought it would be but is light weight and will make it easy to carry.
