Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great value. $90 for 5 TB is a steal! Nice and compact.

Seems to work as designed. Great size and easy to use.

Works great, I use it with my laptop to get more space on it to do all the up grades that are required.

Relatively physical size but huge storage size! My PC immediately recognized the portable drive and it has been running smoothly for a month now. The file transfer speeds seem decent but probably not as fast as a solid state drive. Very happy overall.

Directions were very straight forward almost self-explanatory. I had no problems plugging into a USB Hub. It started right up and I had 5TB ready to go. I liked it so much I got a second one a few days later.

This thing is easy to use and it has a lot of memory

Bought this as my main external backup drive and so far it's been a godsend as I work with large video and graphic files. Not terribly fast if plugged into a USB 2.0 port, although it's compatible (that's all I had on my older machine, but when plugged into my new machine with majority 3.0 ports, file transfer speed exceeded my expectations. Easy plug and play and a small footprint. Have already unplugged from my desktop and taken it with me, attached it to my laptop, and was back to work in a temporary location with no problems.

My third WD storage which is so reliable not have any problem. One was 15plus year old and it is kicking. I got this 5TB on sale and I love it.

Purchased to use with my PS5. Works as expected. I’m satisfied with it. I would recommend. I caught it on sale for a great price.

Great USB 3.0 drive with lots of storage. Works well.

Fast, big and quiet. The cable is about 189 inches long which makes it good for desktops and consoles also. I have bought some with 8 inches cables and it makes it difficult to reach when attached to desktops. I use it to expand a PS5 and is fast enough to supply data. Thick enough to stand as is in the photo.

So, I've been using this for my video games application storage. It's been working great and was real easy to set up from my PS4. Games seems to run better and more effectively. For the price and the storage. It is worth it for sure.

Small, Fast and enough space to backup for a lifetime

Easy to use compact gets the job done works with pc and mac

Compact size to carry, good reading speed but a little slow on writing. Very easy to use, just plug and play with no power required. Love it.

Easy to use and extended the storage space on my MAC.

I picked up this drive to add more storage to my home server running on Linux. It was easy to format and is the third WD portable hard drive I have added for storage options. This one was purchased to swap out a smaller 2TB drive I was using for photos and movies. No issues so far and I would gladly purchase another if I needed to!

Pretty easy to use. Just transfer files to it easily by dragging the files from your lap top or desktop. Only drawback Is the price sometimes it can vary up to 30 dollars.

A lot of storage for the small size and the price was fair. Appreciate how compact it is so that I can take it wherever I need to go.

quick and compact!! awesome product for the price :)
