Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've always stuck with WD drives, internal and external, and have never had an issue. This one does not need a power source, is powered by USB and has good read and write speeds. Use it mainly for archiving videos, pictures, MP3's and books and works great.

I have been using these drives for quite a while and have never had a problem. I have one for pictures, one for music, and one for work. My 2TB work drive has become too small and the 4TB was a needed upgrade. All files transfered with absolutely no issues.

We chose this hard drive for the storage capacity that it has. In addition, we never had any of Western Digital's hard drives fail on us. Not only is it good for backing up the computer we are putting it in good use as available storage for an X-Box entertainment console.

This is great for storage and meets basic needs especially with a laptop that doesn't have much storage

This backup disk is very easy to setup and use. Even for ones that don't know how to use them.

I AM QUITE HAPPY WITH THIS EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE. I NOW HAVE PLENTY OF SPACE TO ADD ALL OF MY MUSIC! THE PRICE WAS GREAT FOR THE ABOUT OF SPACE AND THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE THAT HELPED ME WAS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND PROVIDED ME WITH THE BEST RECOMMENDATION. THANK YOU!

I got this for extra storage for my PlayStation and so far its holding up very well.

used it for the ps4 and it works great. its a good small size so its not really in the way.

I wanted to have small storage device to store bulk data . This item served my purpose.

Lightweight and easily transportable for 4TB. Runs reasonably quick for the transfer method. Can be a superb backup device, monster-size "memory stick," or chained to a 6 or 8 TB wired or wireless drive with a USB interface. Liked so well I bought two - one for a gift.

You can literally take it anywhere and it's so practical. I was skeptical about buying it since I usually buy the big ones you keep near the computer. Its great to take when i go out of town and need to download pictures from my camera or to share data with people.

I like to keep back up of my paperwork and pictures. This drive keeps it all safe and never fails

Wanted to use this as a "Timemachine" backup for my Mac. It is not plug and play and took me 1.5 hrs. with a WD rep to finally get it to work. Chats, screen shots, multiple attempts at reformatting. It really shouldn't be this difficult. Would not buy for Mac Timemachine backup.

The size are price are awesome but I had the hardest time understanding how to use it on my MacBook. I wasn’t able to pick and choose was went into the back up. It just automatically backs up my whole computer. Then I had issues accessing the backed up files.

My mac has been giving me issues since day one. Fortunately, I bought this, finally learned about Time Machine..I know, don't say it...and Voila! Poo-Poo to computer crashes! No worries. I've got this backed up now. So happy. The ultimate set it and forget it savior.

I needed a external hard drive for my Xbox. For the price I couldn't pass this one up. 4tb for $100 is great!

I have been replacing my older powered external hard drives with the WD Easystore drives and they work perfectly. I now have 3 of them, and will continue to get more of them as my storage demands increase with all the photos I'm taking. Definitely recommended.

The ease in which to use this is unbelievable. I'm not too computer literate but this was easy.

good storage and plenty space to filling my pictures

like the convenience of it. Like to store all my pictures on it so they do not take up space on my computer
