    I got this on Black Friday on a whim, went to Best Buy to get an external hard drive for my PS4. For 80 bucks, this thing is amazing. After formatting I had about 3.6TB of data available for my playstation, which is more than enough. I do not notice any difference in speed, it's great!

    Large, Easy to use Disk, Good Price

    This disk worked out of the box with the provided USB cable. The price is very good for a compact, portable drive with 4TB. It is a little slow, but for the price, it is fine. I am concerned about losing the product-specific cable that came with the drive. It has a funny end that looks like it is probably a miniature version of an ATA cable. I have not looked to see if these can be purchased at stores, but if I lose or damage the cable, it looks like a WD mail order item.

    Everything has been running smoothly up to this point. I haven’t had any issues.It is very simple and easy to figure out, with a simple YouTube video I was able to install it on my own. I use this for all of my photo shoots.

    I will only buy WD products after a failed portable drive from another manufacture failed, and they wanted a minimum of $500 to even see if files could be recovered. I've never had an issue with WD products personally or at the CPA firm I work. Great sale made this one a no brainer!

    This purchase was an afterthought. The price was good enough I would happily pay it. I use this USB external drive to run Linux on a computer that has Windows on its internal hard drive. The dual boot situation has worked well.

    Excellent for Retro gaming and storing large volumes of games and Emulators on. Building up an archive of games uses a large volume of space and this holds a good amount. Plug and play works great for what I needed. I always can trust WD.

    Given the ever increasing size of some PC games these days (Warzone), this has been essential to have in tandem with my smaller SSD. I can run the game from this drive and never have to worry about space again.

    After running out of room on all my other external HD's, I bought this because of its capacity. It is amazingly small and the price was reasonable. Very glad I bought it.

    Bought this for my son's X-Box because the game's 500GB was used up in less than a year. Super easy to connect via USB port and the small profile sits behind the X-Box out of sight. I was going to buy the green X-Box storage unit, but I now have twice the storage for less $$$.

    I purchased this external drive for use on my new Xbox One X. Not only is the additional 4TB of storage great to have but this USB 3.0 drive does not require an external power sorce to turn it on while others do. I will be buying another one when I need the additional storage.

    Perfect for PS4

    I bought this specifically for the purpose of expanding my storage space. I quickly ran into storage problems with my PS4 and had to keep deleting to make space. Sony finally allowed for external hard drive support and this has been working phenomenally. I also got it when it was on sale which was just icing on the cake. If you need to expand the storage of your PS4 this series of hard drives are compact and easy to use.

    I have been using for months now as an external for my Mac for Premiere Pro projects. Fast saving and keeps my processing fast by not having saved files on the machine for caching issues. Small and easily accessible.

    No reason not to buy multiples and have plenty of backup. The WD line of portable drives is solid. I've only had one out of six flat out fail and it saw lots of moving around so not unexpected.

    The drive has performed well with no issues. Fast transfer speeds and I've had an easy time loading it with media files. Only weird thing is the software not being compatible with the Easystore product line.
