Have been using WD external drives for years now, starting back when the capacity was only 1TB. Great for on the go backups, be they media, photos, music, or documents. When these go on sale, they are great value.

Excellent product. It's very convenient to carry around, from one computer to another, with plenty of storage. Hopefully it will last a while (over 5 years..). So far so good. And very easy to use...decent read/write comparing to other makers.

Super easy to set up this portable drive on a macbook. It has so much storage and it is very user friendly. Got a great deal during their sale and using my current AMEX offer ($100 refund on purchases over $100). Grab the deal while you can!

I bought this during the holidays for a great price, I use it to store my gopro footage and it works great as I can plug into my desktop or take it with my laptop. Great time saver.

I bought this to use with my PS5, at first it said it was not comparable but i unplugged it and re plugged it back in and it worked perfectly. Best price for a 5tb external hard drive, if your looking for a good game storage then this is for you.

I found this easy to use... easy to program as a receptacle for my dish items I want to save. I have a lot of memory for a low price... and if something happens to my receiver, this back up keeps my favorites.

Great mechanical hard drive for the money!! 5 GB storage with the quality of Western Digital and Mac or PC compatible. I used it with my Mac and had to reformat it, but with the disk utility, it was no big deal!! Don’t hesitate, buy this!

Good product. Using it as a backup drive in Xbox one x. It still. Runs games @4k will hold it until the revision of series x arrives. Pretty happy with the backup drive for now. This is my 3rd purchase of one of these.

5tb of portable storage for just over $100. You can't beat that. Its small and its pretty quick compared to my old 1tb drive. Great buy. I'm about to buy another one to use as a backup.

Western Digital hard drives are excellent. They are reliable even after several bumps and minor falls.
The included software, EdgeRover, is a little clumsy. It is still in Beta phase.

WD external drives are the best. If you don't want to spring for a SSD, these do the job. I have had several and never had a problem. Wait for them to go on sale and get the most bang for your buck.

I bought this hard drive to download years and years of family photos and keepsake memories. The holding capacity is amazing so I don't have to have a bunch of them. The price was great.
Very easy to use. No problems. Quick and looks great, too.

Just as advertised. Works great! Went for the 5TB because the deal was unbeatable and I'm trying to condense storage for family photos/ videos. Plugged item into computer and it started up perfectly. Would definitely recommend!

I love this device! I had a 1TB external drive but it required a plug-in power supply. This unit is so much better because it is powered at the USB connector, and it is smaller in size with 5 times as much storage.

Needed an external hard drive for my gaming laptop and this one is great! Has a ton of space for all of my current and future games. Has an app to help you keep track of your storage. I highly recommend this hard drive to anyone!

It works exactly as described, and I have no complaints about this product. The price is the best deal you can find anywhere. I am looking to buy another one in a couple of months because it is definitely worth it.

Fits all of my videogames and has plenty of room. With the updates needed on games and the excess memory that they need in this era (a little ridiculous but nonetheless), this device works extremely well and is very easy to work with.
