Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this to use for my PS4 since the 1TB Inter al won’t really hold many games. I had a 2TB external that I started running into space issues with too. This one holds my entire library (which I’d say is above average) with plenty of room to spare. Set up was quick and easy, and performance has been seamless!

Love my storage drive I purchased from Best buy. Easy to install. Lots of storage capacity. Price is great. I highly recommend this drive from bestbuy

So much storage! Easy to use, password protected. Small in size.

Overall, the WD Easystore 5TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive is a reliable and efficient choice for your storage needs.

As someone who is always on the go, I do a lot of my processing on my laptop. So making sure I have a good reliable and portable external hard drive is a very important thing. This one is always with me. Just enough space to do everything I need to do without taking up too much space in my bag.

Price: Excellent! good storage value for the price Delivery: pick up at curbside, super easy and quick, associate was friendly Product: sturdy, fast, huge storage, plug and play, can't go wrong with WD, I don't think I could find 5TG from WD with this price anywhere else (must be a Best Buy exclusive)

I work in IT and I'm always downloading items (songs, etc). My previous external hard drive was full and I wanted something small, easy to use, and full of storage space. This fit the bill! I have a MacBook so I did have to format the hard drive first but it was a piece of cake. Thanks Best Buy!

Like many PS4 users whenever I got a new game I would have to delete an old one. I bought this hard drive so that I could expand my storage from 500GB to 2.5TB and that problem has gone away! THE SETUP The set up was SUPER simple. I plugged in the hard drive with the included cable and my Playstation instantly recognized it. It walked me through the steps to format it and within 5 minutes I was ready to go. USAGE Again, this was very simple. I started reinstalling some of my old games and the Playstation knew to put them onto the expanded memory as the system's memory was full. It is easy to move the files around between the PS4 and hard drive if need be. PLAYING GAMES OFF THE DRIVE I can tell no noticeable difference when playing the games from the hard drive. There are no noticeable glitches or slowdown in play. All the games work perfectly. I would definitely recommend this hard drive! Especially for anyone looking to expand their PS4's storage. It's simple to set up and works like a charm! If I encounter any issues I will update my review.

Compact and easy to use. I have so many videos and photos of trips and family that I want to preserve. Now I can rest assure they will be safe. I purchase one that can supply the storage I need now and in the future. The sales associates at Best Buy explained the difference between each one.

Light weight, very easy to use, can hold a lot of data. We love it.

After reading reviews of long term storage decay on SSD devices I decided to buy this product. It's smaller than I thought so no issues with placement and it's hard to tell if it's spinning even when touching it. No issues at all with getting it up and running. Glad I chose this one.

Lots of storage at a very good price. Works right out of the box and is easy to use. Large backup space for my Photoshop files.

Great driver for backups, or external storeage. I use mine for externally saved large files while working video editing. Fast transfer and excellent life cycle on the drives.

WD drive are the best! I've owned then for many years with no failures. When it's your data at stake, you don't want to me around. Easy to use software make it ideal for anyone. This last 5Tb drive is fast and solid. You don't be disappointed!

It's a hard drive that's portable. It has the capacity I wanted. It is so far doing what it is supposed to do.

I purchased this drive for additional back up space and Best Buy had the best price. As an impulse buy I am very pleased with the speed and reliability of this drive thus far. It doesn't take up much space, is quiet and was effortless to set up. I look forward to filling it up.

Great hard drive for my Xbox series s,x and one. I have the east store hard drive on all my Xbox consoles and it does a great job with no issues or problems accessing content and my games stored on the hard drives. It just works great as soon as I format the drive for my Xbox systems . I’ve used these drives for my consoles for a couple of years for my Xbox one and now on my Xbox series s as well as recently Xbox series x . I highly recommend anyone to purchase one of these drives and you won’t be disappointed. No matter what size of dive you choose it works great. My Xbox one has a 2tb and my Xbox series s as well as x systems have the 5tb drives.

This is a great backup hard drive for my two MacBookPros. It has a smaller footprint than my older external hard drive. I bought at a good price, and when it was a “Deal of the Day” a few days later, I called Best Buy, and they credited my credit card to match the lower price.

Very easy to use and best of all you can see what you have actually saved to this external drive, not in code, but literally as you see it on your desktop or laptop. Does not automatically download. However, one just selects documents, or photos and copy them (not move them) from your C drive to this external. I highly recommend it! So compact easy to store in any fireproof file/safe. Just set up a reminder for yourself to copy on an interval that works for you. Copying them will give you an option to only add new or changed files.

Bargain price, installs very easily, seems quite fast storing data. I transferred 2.2 GB in one move with no problems. U
