Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy-to-use more than enough space. Would very much recommend.

This was a good purchase, so I bought an extra one for my wife's computer. It was easy to set up and works invisibly in the background. My backups are local and available in seconds rather than experiencing long download times from my former provider.

Great Storage and was easy to set up. I would recommend it to anyone who needs extra space.

This unit is great purchase for anyone want to transfer and information off a main hard drive. Its compact and very easy to use. Great for pictures and videos. I would highly recommend it.

Great product. It is very easy to use and setup. It is easy use for storage of all data, music and pictures. Great storage space and resourceful. Easy mobility. Great Customer service also.

Very good storage. I wo not use the WD software available on the disk when you purchase it (easy to delete the software from the disk) as other software on the market is far superior. That said, having 5TB external storage for fast backups is very nice. This is a rotational-disk-based storage ddevice, so it will not be as fast as Solid State storage, but it does rotate at 5400 rpm and has a good transfer rate up to 5GBS with a USB 3.0. Just plug adn go!

Great External Harddrive. Quick transfer. Worked perfectly on my iMac, without issues. Plug and play and backup my laptop! Got it at a great Black Friday price!

This drive works well and has lots of space for my files.

I use this to back-up pictures mostly & important documents. Load times are very quick. I also have the 2TB & 4TB. No issues with backing up anything. Very reliable. I would recommend to anyone.

It’s a good value drive for the capacity and price. I’ve been using WD for a long time now and they are reliable for the price. If you need super reliability or super fast transfer rates this is not for you. It’s good for the typical user.

I'm using this to store data from my 2 telescopes when doing astrophotography. It has been flawless from day one, and 5TB will hold a lot of files when taking hundreds of images on any given night. It's fast enough for my needs, with files sent directly via WIFI from each telescope controller, as each raw sub exposure is taken. I would buy another if needed.

Fantastic HDD for storage of family photos and videos. Super easy to use. Just plug and play!

Excellent for the novice in me... just plug in and SAVE your files. Easy, and tidy. I like the size and compact nature, as well as the immense amount of storage - perfect for my photo albums.

Great portable external hard drive, plenty of memory to store all my documents needed. Lightweight and compact fits anywhere.

I love this little drive. Little in size but not in capacity. It is so easy to move files from one computer to another and for a backup of several computers. There is enough space to back up all 4 of my computers and still have space left. So far it has performed flawlessly and I hope it continues to do so. I would definitely recommend this drive to anyone who is looking for a good reliable drive for storage or backup or portability. I have always had great service out of Western Digital drives.

Directions were very straight forward almost self-explanatory. Nifty little gadget to have. Tons of storage at a compact convenience.

Great storage awesome price, easy to use. Love it.

HDD is very portable and has enough space to handle all my files. I use it as backup to my working files. Will buy a second one if I run out of space.

Better than expected, small pocket sized, easy install

This was very easy to use. Worked great. Wonderful purchase.
