    For the last 2 years I have been using the smaller easy store WD drives. I use to purchase the desktop version however this save me a lot of space as the number of drives I purchase increases.

    I love the ease of these external hard drives and having the ability to store photos and documents where they are safe and accessible. An external hard drive is also useful as a backup for your computer system.

    This comes in handy for the Xbox one and PS4 due to them having only 500gb of space. You can easily run through that playing call of duty with the updates and so for. Definitely recommend this to anyone.

    I am using it with my XBox One and it works great. I first bought Seagate 2TB Hard Drive, which worked fine initially but had to return it because it stopped working. This one is working great and has a better storage.

    I purchased this hard drive to transfer all of my photos (> 17,000) to. This has allowed me to free up space on my Lap Top PC main drive. The capacity of this drive is huge and it doesn't take up much space on my desk.

    Love this portable hard drive. I was able to divide the drive to make a time machine for my Mac and the other half that would be interchangeable between Mac and PC.

    I'm very pleased with the read/write speed on this drive, plus I didn't have to install the Discovery software included to make it work. A very good deal for the price. I'm glad I bought two, my wife likes hers too.

    This is my second 5tb hard drive. I take it everywhere I go. Impressed with size and amount of data its capable of storing. I do not have to multiple hard drives now since I purchased this one. I was able to consolidate my data and reduce the weight in my book bag.

    Tons of space. Love that it’s powered by USB; hate that it’s a special cable (I always lose them and have buy another one, instead of use another common one I already have).
