    Best storage ever very fast and very easy to use. If you have sensitive files, this will be the safest way to save them.

    Second one I buy , for my gaming consoles. First one was 4TB for my PS4 and it works great I’m able to save my games data on them without taking system storage space. This 5TB is for my ps5 that scalpers won’t let me buy yet.;P

    I didn't know you could save files larger than 4gb!!, and knowing that you can save files that big is the best.

    I have a lot of pictures, videos, and work files on my computer. These drives save my life...by allowing me to offload files that I don't need everyday but still need. Also allows me a second backup in addition to my cloud backup!

    I have bought a number of these WD easy store drives, they are great as off-site back ups. They do get warm when transferring a TB at a time but do not appear to slow down.

    I purchased this for the PS5 console. What the buyer must know is that this work for the storage of PS4 games on the PS5 console only. Additionally, it must be connected via one of the two USB ports on the rear of the console.

    All my portable HDs have been WD and I have loved the HDs. I was so happy to find a 5 TB HD for $100!! What a deal. That's much less than the WD 2 TB HD i paid for a couple years ago. I am happy with all my WD HDs. They are good!!!
