    Got this as a replacement for an older drive my mom used to store family photos on PC. Much faster read/write speed, and will probably see a lot of use in the future

    Works great. Bought as external storage for my PS4 Pro. Just plug in, format it from the PS4 and change your application install to extended storage and/or =move games from your internal drive to the external.

    We purchased these external hard drives for our College age daughters. They are able to back up and save all their needed files and photos in one drive. This allows for piece of mind about valuable items saved.

    Attached as a backup device to a Win 10 computer and is working as expected. This is latest in a long string of WD Passports, replaced only when more storage is required.

    I was able easily back up all my photos and music from various hard-drives, flash-drives and my computer into 1 hard-drive and still have space for my future files. I no longer need to carry multiple storage devices.

    This is a 2nd purchase as the first one was a couple of years ago. Both work as intended to serve as off-site back-ups of my computer back-up drive. I exchange them every couple of months at my son's.

    I use mac's and you need to reformat the drive but when that is done just perfect for storage and back up as well as moving large amounts of information from one computer to another thru the tennis shoe type network.

    I'm a retired database administrator so I am concerned about backing up my data, This is easy to use and it works well. 5gb holds a lot of data and the transfer time of data to it is quick.

    I've had a lunky like 5" drive for a good few years now. Just got this and I'm absolutely loving it! No more additional power source, much smaller, faster, and looks a lot sleeker. Haven't had any issues, loving it so far!

    Needed another external hard drive. My last one needs to be plugged in. Love that this only needs to be plugged into your computer/ laptop and you can start transferring photos. Also that it is nice and compact.

    Excellent and easily setup hard drive. Relatively fast, got everything backed up in no time. I am big on backups, the more redundancy the better. So this was a great addition to my clouds and various other drives.
