    Great, little hard drive. I plugged it in and was up and running right away after running the software on the drive. No issues so far and seems sturdy and solid. I got this during a Black Friday sale so the cost was a bit lower than usually advertised.

    Great drive at a good price. I loaded all my Playstation 4 games onto this to play on Playstation 5. This drive turned out to be even smaller than the previous 2tb I was using for PS4.

    I use a MacBook, so I had to format the drive but it was a quick and easy setup! Also, the drive is much thinner than I expected. I especially love the Western Digital utilities which includes a password protection option.

    This is the first external hard drive I’ve ever bought and so far, it hasn’t let me down. I use it for my video games, my music files and my video files! If you’re running out of space on your computer then this is an excellent buy!

    I don’t use this for dynamic read/write storage. It is used for my extensive media collection where I only need to read files once they are stored. Works great for that — plenty of bandwidth to stream over my home network. Got it on sale at BB for under $20/TB.

    This storage device for my laptop is just what I wanted. It's easy to set up and easy to use. I had a prior type (different company) that wanted to do its own thing and wouldn't let me do what I wanted with it.

    Bought this incase I need a back up. I think it was on sale at the time. I have my stuff saved on the internet but if there's ever a problem with that I have a second location. Its 5TB so you'll probably never run out room any time soon.
