Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very portable device. Small and light weight. Works great as a back up for my data. Does not need an external power cord as power is delivered via the USB cable when hooked up to a PC. Great value when it's on sale at BestBuy!

I found this easy to use... easy to program as a receptacle for my dish items I want to save. I have a lot of memory for a low price... and if something happens to my receiver, this back up keeps my favorites.

very nice. happy with purchase. good quality and reliable

I’ll be back to purchase another one soon thanks Best Buy

I have used these drives for backing up my system. I have had some of these for many years and they don't fail.

WD external drives are the best. If you don't want to spring for a SSD, these do the job. I have had several and never had a problem. Wait for them to go on sale and get the most bang for your buck.

Awesome item. Has alot of storage space. Works for smoothly when saving files to it. Would definitely recommend.

Decided to give the Easystore a try as opposed to the Paasport since it was a little bit cheaper. Although both have 5TB, the Easystore seems to be slower. Not a big deal since I'm just using it as an additional backup for archival purposes. I prefer the look and size of the Passport more than the Easystore, but it seems to be a good value. Been using WD for years and I intend to keep using WD.

This thing is fantastic! We don't have tons of high-quality video to back up, but if we did, this thing would be able to hold it all! I never have any use for the software included in the device, but the space for the price was unbeatable!

Compact...No power cords needed and at 5TB...plenty of storage. More than a single purchase for me.

Good product. Using it as a backup drive in Xbox one x. It still. Runs games @4k will hold it until the revision of series x arrives. Pretty happy with the backup drive for now. This is my 3rd purchase of one of these.

I use this to store my many games that i play in Xbox. I haven't had any issues yet. I highly recommend it. Very easy to use. Very good price.

Really nice to have this much storage in the palm of your hand & be portable. I can’t even be sure if my TV can sync up to it ( haven’t tried connecting it yet) but for every thing else it works great. Use it to back up my WD mycloud as of right now.

Excellent product. It's very convenient to carry around, from one computer to another, with plenty of storage. Hopefully it will last a while (over 5 years..). So far so good. And very easy to use...decent read/write comparing to other makers.

Super easy to set up this portable drive on a macbook. It has so much storage and it is very user friendly. Got a great deal during their sale and using my current AMEX offer ($100 refund on purchases over $100). Grab the deal while you can!

The WD - Easystore 5TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive is perfect for freeing up space on your Desk Top or Laptop Hard Drive! I highly recommend at such a great price! It is easy to store or take with you where ever you go!

Great mechanical hard drive for the money!! 5 GB storage with the quality of Western Digital and Mac or PC compatible. I used it with my Mac and had to reformat it, but with the disk utility, it was no big deal!! Don’t hesitate, buy this!

I bought this to use with my PS5, at first it said it was not comparable but i unplugged it and re plugged it back in and it worked perfectly. Best price for a 5tb external hard drive, if your looking for a good game storage then this is for you.

Western Digital hard drives are excellent. They are reliable even after several bumps and minor falls. The included software, EdgeRover, is a little clumsy. It is still in Beta phase.

I love this device! I had a 1TB external drive but it required a plug-in power supply. This unit is so much better because it is powered at the USB connector, and it is smaller in size with 5 times as much storage.
