    I bought this back out several laptops and a desktop computer that I have in my house. Probably more storage than I’ll need, but you never know.

    Was able to get this on discount for about $80 during a Best Buy sale. Used to carry 5 1TB Hard Drive, but this one has helped me consolidate everything into 1. Definitely don't regret.

    I'm not a first time buyer of the WD External HDD, this is my third WD external hdd, used both portable of one having external power adapter too. So for working good. no issues. Cost wise good as i got it for around 89.99 during thanks giving 2020. Expecting the SSD industry to have chaper disk with greater space.

    Downloaded 3.4 TB over the course of eight days (running the whole time) and it did not over heat, thought it did get warm which is normal. Needed the storage for the new console generation.

    Very happy with my new 5TB portable hard drive. I have a Mac desktop and older hard drives just didn't have enough storage for all my pictures and videos. Now I can back up with no problems.

    Great product, will buy again. Just have to be careful if the product is in use and you move the drive which can cause it to crash or damage. It has happened to my previously in use exactly similar external drive.

    This is my third hard drive and for the price you can’t beat it. I have noticed no difference in speeds compared to my wd hard drives so I will probably buy another one when I need it.
