    Does what I bought it to do. Have used WD products and they have worked well with both Mac and Windows for storing my photos and videos.

    It’s a must have for a DJ. The storage and ease of use is great. Easy to set up. I recommend buying a case. Great deal. I bought it when it’s product of the day. I went back to buy a second.

    I have owned western digital hard drives in the past, very happy with their product and performance. It’s gonna take me years before I fill up 5 TB. Bought this on sale which made it even a better purchase.

    Spinning platters, what does it matter. 5TB storage that was does. Small and works. Do my archives as a second source. Cheap insurance.

    I needed some extra space on my editing computer, and this five terabyte drive gave me plenty of space for my raw 4K footage that I shoot. Easy plug and play too, which is always a plus in my book!

    Have been using WD hard drives for years and they always perform flawlessly. Bought this 5TB unit to store a lot of photos. Works great as expected. I always recommend WD for storage. Even better when you can catch it on sale :)

    Western Digital. Always a great name in quality and reliable hard drives. I picked this up as a second hdd for my Xbox One. It has plenty of storage for my huge game collection and on top of that the games seem to load faster.

    Amazing external HD for Xbox 1 X

    My 1TB Xbox One X Battlefield edition (limited run gold/gray combo) was running out of storage, so went to buy an external storage. I was initially planning on getting a 1 TB but then saw this one on sale. Took advantage of the sale and now have 6TB of storage on my Xbox. So far no issues and this has been my 2nd portable WD external drive (my other one is a 2TB drive, for PC backups). This is compact enough that it sits behind my Xbox and I haven't had any issues yet. Still running strong and have been using it every time I use my Xbox since the games I play has their storage and data saved on this device rather than the short 1TB internal Xbox storage.

    Bought it for my PS5 to store PS4 games. It works like a charm. I love it and all the extra space it gives me. Plug and play too after you format it for your system.
