    For a 5 Terabyte external hdd you can’t beat the pric especially if you’re on a budget and looking for a ton of space for music, movies, or even gaming. It synced to my pc very quickly. I highly recommend.

    Much Needed Storage Upgrade

    Bought this to replace a suspected failing external 1TB Seagate drive. A non portable one. This was bought for my parents. I also bought a longer usb3 to usb cable so my parents could use the drive and place it on their computer desk where the old Seagate was. Bought the longer cable from Amazon. Also bought a hard shell travel case for the drive as well from Amazon. My folks now have flexibility to carry drive and original included cable with them in travel case while leaving 3rd party drive cable plugged into pc tower under desk on rear facing usb port on the computer. Easy disconnect and go. Easy reconnect when back home. Pleased with my purchase. Glad I could help my folks out.

    Great storage unit. I love the fact that it will back-up my PC and my Mac. I also like the fact that its small enough to take with me everywhere my laptop goes yet still has a ton of storage.

    So far so good. Bought two for storing video recordings for my Plex server. I have no specific requirements for fast reads or writes. Reliable for now and hopefully for a long time.

    A lot of storage for such a small hard drive, especially at this great price. It's about the size of a fist, so it doesn't take up a lot of space. Works great! Hopefully it will last a long time.

    Great price for a 5TB storage device, I bought it as a deal of the day almost 50% off. It was very easy to set up and use, very fast downloaded all my files onto the device during the first backup.

    I have never had a problem with WD. They are rock solid. I use this to store downloaded movies on, so I can watch whatever I want at the push of a button. I can also take my movies wherever I go.

    I needed to replace a 10 year old 5 T portable hard drive before it failed. I purchased this new, more compact, faster portable hard drive for back-ups. It performs flawlessly. It is for a Wibdows 10 system.

    It is a reliable disk, I currently use it on mac to make backups and it works at a good speed, 5TB is a lot of space and the best thing is that it does not take up space in your backpack
