    Quite. Far more reliable than the Seagate drives. The bonus of the USB stick was a nice addition.

    I have been a liflong user of Western DIgital. They have proven to be more reliable over time to Seagate ( I have had 1 or 2 SG fail) I never use the included software and opt to reformat for clean and full use of memeory allowed. I have no complaints with these drives.

    I bought this during the deal of the day for 1/2 price. I had been looking for an external HD for my Xbox one and worked out great. Easy to connect to the Xbox one and provided the storage capacity I was looking for.

    The install and set up of this device could not have been easier. In use it simply does the job. Except for the brief update process it goes through upon every system start up it does not get in the way of using the computer and simply does its job unattended.

    Hard to believe 4GB is considered a little drive these days. Back in my day, a 44MB Syquest drive was big. And a 100MB Zip drive -- what would I do with all that storage space? Now a 32GB flash drive is a giveaway! This is an excellent portable storage solution.

    This portable hard drive is the one to get for continuous use on the go. I reformatted it to ExFat for My MacBook. Never any hesitation when in use. The addition of the 32 Gig thumb drive was a great bonus as was the price from Deal of the Day.

    I use this as storage for a PS4 and it’s great! Its easy to install and use. I had already upgraded the internal storage to 2tb and my son started running low so this was a great addition. Its not big or bulky and adds storage without having to open up the PS4.

    This was an awesome deal and I am so glad my Daughter made me aware of it. You not only got the external hard drive for a great price, but it also included a 32GB flash drive. Now I will be able to back up my photos, sort them and then share them with family!

    I bought this for my Xbox One. With more abd more games being downloaded I needed more storage and this affordable drive solved the problem. I don't notice any difference in load speeds between this and the internal hard drive, which is fine.

    I got this as part of black friday sale, and have been using it for past couple of days to increase the storage limit of my 512GB SSD Razer laptop. I loved the speed at which operates on USB 3.0 and how light it is to make it easier for me to carry it around.

    I needed a replacement for my 2tb WB drive that died after 4 or 5 years and this 4tb drive was on sale, and came with a free32gb flash drive to boot! This should hold me over till I can get a 5tb solid state drive for $100.00 in a few years.

    I got the external hard drive to store my digital ps4 games so I didn’t use up all the system’s storage! It’s been working great! I got a deal that included a flash drive which is a nice bonus. I haven’t used it yet, but I bet it’s great!

    The WD easystore external drives are the best option for Xbox storage. The easystore drives do not come with any unneeded preloaded software. Just plug in and go; with Xbox, plug in, format, and go. A great buy!
