    This drive works and does the job of holding all my files. Haven't had any problems whatsoever. Combine it with a NVIDIA Shield and you can watch all your files saved to this device no problem.

    The moment I plugged this into my blu ray player, I was able to view all the video clips I created. Just plug it in and the blu ray player immediately recognized it. This is a handy device to store all your hi res pics and videos.

    Attached as a backup device to a Win 10 computer and is working as expected. This is latest in a long string of WD Passports, replaced only when more storage is required.

    Tons of storage at a great price. No issues with initial setup and all my files transferred no problem (2TB worth). Speeds are what you would expect from a traditional external HDD (roughly 120 MBs read / 113 MBs write).

    Best deal for the price I paid. Got it for $89.99 on the Black Friday weekend. 5TB is more than enough to back up by 2 laptops and contents from my old portable hard drive. Much faster than the old one, and quiet too.

    Easy setup, though it leads to a mycloud app that cannot be used with this device? Storage works nicely and transfer speed is comparable to an internal drive, which is nice to see in an external drive.
