Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great value for the price. This item was part of the deal or the day.

Purchased this as extra storage for a PS4. Easy to use. Although it's not a full 4T, you get 3.6T or so.

I only use WD drives -- internals and externals. I've had a bunch and still have every one of them. Never a problem. At work and home I've seen drives crash in 30 years. Not one was a WD. I've only replaced them to install a bigger one.

I’ve used and had many drives fail over the 12 years I repaired and serviced computers. WD is all I use.

I bought this external drive to move my 550 gig music library off of my lap top, which was running out of internal memory. No setup was required, just a simple plug and play, for my needs. No bugs so far and my pc has tons of storage again. Great product and I'd buy it again.

This is my second same brand external drive. That's my answer.

This is a great option if you need extra storage for your console. I have one for my Xbox One X, and one for my PS4 Pro. Small size and doesn't need to be plugged into a power outlet. Just plug into USB port, format the drive, and you're all set. Super easy with plenty of extra space.

Needed a place to backup my GOG installer files so everything I have backed up wasn't all on one backup drive. This was perfect. Of course in a couple of years I'll need an additional one, LOL

Great for backing up old computers before recycling or destroying them

Couldn't pass on this product for the price. Read and write speeds are great. Couldn't be more pleased.

Great back up storage for my laptop and iMac. The price was really good as well!!

have had WD 4TB portable for over a year now and it is still working like NEW. Runs from 1 USB port. Have had another brand of USB portable disk that did not function properly on 1 USB port but it was supposed to. Anyway this was a good buy. I use it to back up everything.

Bought this to use on my ps4 pro to expand the 1tb internal HD. Easy to get started, just connect it to a USB port on the console and format it to start using it. Haven't had any issues with speed, and the ps4 stays quiet when running games from it.

I haven't owned the product long enough to write a long term report but for the short time that I've had it, I can say that it's a well built good quality product. It connects to my laptop quite fast and I haven't had any problems with my laptop not detecting the external storage device thus far.

Needed more space for recording OTA Christmas shows and came across this one. The portable drives don't seem as fast for transferring from device to device, but for straight recording or viewing it works fine.

For the amount of storage, this is a great price. It was quite surprising to find such a great price on a credible company.

I bought this to back up my laptop so I didn't lose anything.

I went from an older drive to this one and everything about this one has outperformed my expectations.

Great Backup hard-drive. I can backup my desktop and my laptop on this external hard-drive. I love it.

Pretty straight forward. I needed to upgrade from the 1 TB external HDD I was using with my Xbox One and it was getting close to full. Saw the 4 TB WD on sale for $105, bought it. Now I have almost 80% free space. It reads and writes just as fast as the 1 TB Seagate external HDD I was using before.
