    I am a little wary of WD as a drive company, but it seems suitable for what I needed, which is an additional copy of files (rather than being my only storage of these files). It's a little loud, and can definitely "hear" it hard at work, which has me a bit concerned, but it definitely works for opening, editing, and playing large files on it.

    Wanted something better to store photos other than my PC. Husband suggested an external hard drive and I’m glad he did. I have enough storage for thousands of photos. Great price and easy to use.

    I love WD and this easy store external hard drive. It's small and easy to store and travel with if needed. I had no problems using it with my Mac. Got it on a daily deal so great price for 5TB! I use it for time machine back up and haven't had any problems so far.

    For what I use it for it’s been great. I store my ps4 games on it to play on the ps5. Works great. Transfer speed is a little slow if you need to move games back and forth but once the games are on it zero issues. Now my new ps4 games download straight to it so the transfer rate is no issue at all.
