    Saves data quickly and easily. The USB 3.0 makes it compatible with newer (as well as older) computers. Haven't yet used the backup program.

    So much storage space at such an affordable price, I almost purchased 4. I may wind up purchasing several more to store all of my digital media. We purchase all media digitally and have amassed an iTunes collection of 439 movies. While they can be streamed, I also download them to have on the go to watch on my MacBook Pro when in areas of spotty internet coverage.

    I originally bought one of these to extend my storage space on my PS4. I liked it so much, I purchased a second one for my PC. The drive feels durable and seems it would absorb shock well from a drop. Though I haven't had that very unpleasant experience and am not willing to let it purposely fall to the ground, it does feel as though it could handle at least a light drop well. The performance is great. Nice and quiet operation and very speedy transfer rates. I've already recommended this drive to other people and they love it as well.

    This drive is great! It's about the size of an iphone (a little thicker though, of course) and has great transfer speeds. I love the high capacity and low form factor size...very convenient for on the go needs. I read many reviews and the easystore line is top rated by most...these tend to be higher quality drivers with longer lives than others you'll see.

    Great as intended for use as portable storage. 4TB is a lot of storage for a user for myself. It's light and portable enough to take anywhere. It feels sturdy enough. I mainly use it for backing up files from my computer. WD is proven to be a reputable product when it comes to everyday hard drives. Also uses the most recent USB 3.0 transfer technology.

    The is a quiet and small auxiliary storage solution. I have a fairly generous SSD on my laptop but am reserving it for programs and using this as my storage solution for photos/videoes. To date, it's been great and I have had no issues with it. Having the 4TB storage is great too...kind of like having a digital "closet". I will eventually get full.

    As a 45-year IT pro, let's just say I am not a huge fan of WD. There are better drives out there, namely Seagate. BB does not sell Seagate. As an owner of a data recovery company, I can tell you why I go with Seagate, but I'll probably get sued :) If this is to be an intermittent-duty drive, then this 4TB will work fine. Remember, as the TB storage increases (all high TB drives have this problem) these drives tend to be a lot more fragile. Be very careful when moving this drive, if it is running. So, why did I go with a WD when I could have purchased a Seagate online? Buying at a local brick and mortar store creates local jobs. I buy everything locally because I want to see my neighbors employed.
