    I was surprised at how small this drive is. Yet it still holds 4 TB (before formatting). Makes it easy to create a backup and store it in a safe until my next backup update.

    Bought this to store my Lightroom library as my other external hard drives were at capacity and I wanted to merge library into a single hard drive. Transferred over 10k photos and all went without any hiccups. Drive has worked perfectly!

    I purchased the drive to backup not only the information on my two computers but also to back up my 1G of cloud data as well as accounting data to store in my safety deposit box! It's fast and reliable so far! The price was definitely right!

    Used this for Ps4pro game storage, have over 90 games installed and loads at least as fast as the internal 1TB I used this to bring my game library to the PS5, worked slick and saved HUGE amounts of download time.

    The WD Easystore 4TB External USB Portable Hard Drives are my favorite external drives. I format it to be ExFat so I can use with Apple and Microsoft devices. Perfect for keeping 4k footage and housing Adobe projects.

    Perfect for my original Xbox One since it only has 500GB of internal storage. Planning on purchasing the new Xbox One X soon and will be an easy transfer of data with this external hard drive. The best thing is, it's as simple as plugging the USB into the console; no external power source needed.

    The WD easystore® 4TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive is a Best Buy exclusive that delivers high functionality at a very low price . This is a very fast, high capacity portable hard drive with backup software included at price comparable to bare bones small capacity drives that don't include any software.

    WD is a trusted brand that I trust. I needed yet another one for my many computer back-ups. I am both a PC and Mac user, so this one allows me to partition both OS's. Overall, I liked the price and appreciate the BB deals on this one.

    Pretty solid

    Offers a lot of protection. Tight squeeze for the surfave pro, especially with microsoft pen attached. The pocket doesn't leave room for much other than a set of earbuds, a USB-C charger (surface charger is super bulky) and the Microsoft arc mouse (hoghly recommend!). Would suggest the compay add a small handle to carry and it would add a bit more to love. Overall solid

    Love these portable 4tb drives. I don't have to worry about hooking them up to power source and they are small enough to store multiple of these in a drawer or some small chest. Good speeds on these drives too.

    Good back up drive

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Bought this for backing up several computers. It’s easy to set up but software is a little buggy. Hangs sometimes on shutdown. Hopefully a new version will come out and solve that problem soon. It is not a fast back up drive. It’s actually fairly slow but it does it’s purpose. Just schedule your backup and let it do it’s thing.

    I needed a external drive & I wanted one with at least 4-8TB. This one was on sale & I jumped on the opportunity. I haven't used it yet but its sole purpose will be to backup all my PS4 games. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who needs more storage for their consoles or PC.

    Works easily with MacBook Pro. It needed erasing as manufacturers packaging had indicated. The box instructions agreed with what I saw on my screen as I set it up and used it immediately after purchase. I've used it daily for a couple of weeks and it is reliable fast and just what I wanted.

    Easy setup and formatting. I use this as backup HD for my XBox One. I own three of these in various sizes and use them for my gaming consoles as the HD's are never big enough. Can't speak to any other use for PC's etc.
