    Excellent hard drive. Works as expected. Also most western digital hard drives are backwards compatible on the USB ports. I love western digital products.

    This drive has issues with always mounting. If you don’t eject it properly it can take almost an hour to mount. This problem does not happen with a pc. Other than that, it is a good storage device and a good value.

    No Data Secutiry

    Don't be fooled by the software/utilities capabilities. The drive can't be locked and doesn't support encryption. So great for temp data transfer or maybe media files, but not suitable for backup or data storage if you need security. Pay more for a better product. Hint - if WD wouldn't sell it themselves, but only Best Buy, think twice.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I bought this for recording my Xbox one X games. Works great, and if you want to use it with Xbox you have to format it in NTFS before using it.

    THere is nothing like being able to move 4tb of data in such a small unit... It seems robust and it is fast (at least for me). Working perfectly.

    I used this hard drive for all my graphic design work and it worked wonderfully. It's sad to say recently the part where the cord plugs into the hard drive started to get loose and when I decided to change the case I found out I couldn't fix it. It lasted about a year of good use.

    I picked this up for less than $100. For that price, it is an incredible bargain. 4 TB in the size of a typical 2 TB mechanical hard drive. Well worth the pricer.
