I use this for my dish network Hopper with Sling. It works perfectly to transfer programs

I needed a larger backup drive and wanted something reasonable in price. This does both. The instructions were lacking, but I was able to set it up in spite of the poor instructions. Overall, I’m satisfied with this drive.

I bought this drive to backup my wife's iPhone. She had used all of the iPhone storage and needed to copy the pictures and videos before deleting them. The WD My Book was easy to setup and transfer the data.

I purchased this hard drive to connect to my iMac for additional storage. It was plug and play and works very will with my Mac.

I use this hard drive for my xbox one and it works great everytime. It is easy to set up and it hasn't had any problems since I bought this a year and a half ago.

With the new Sony software update additional storage can be added to your PS4. Easy setup. You may want to purchase a usb hub for additional connections.

Excellent very pleased with this storage. Bought on sale I wish I had bought two of them works well.

Great value. I needed it for video work. Connected to my Macbook with no problems. I work with Final Cut for video projects. The drive is fast. I would recommend it and buy another when I run out of space.

Great for the price. Love the idea of it being a local druve but find it ridiculous to pay ten dollars a month for cloud storage access.

Excellent product! I have purchased a similar drive in the past and am still using it. I needed more storage so I bought another.

I just got this My Book to replace one I have had at least 10 years that wasn't worn out just noisy. The MyBook 4TB was very easy to install and is working great.

Partitioned this drive to backup my 2TB data drive and 256GB SSD on my Dell laptop. One partition I image about 4 times a year, the other uses File History regular backup. Works great!

Photos new home, saving tons of space on tables & computer storing stuff this way

Drive works great. Plug and play. I didn't use any of the included software I just needed to move some data.

I got this as a backup-backup for my home computers. It seems to work pretty well and is fast enough over USB 3. Two small complaints though: 1. The USB 3 cable provided is pretty short. Thankfully I had a much longer one already so I could put the My Book on a shelf a couple feet away from the computer instead of having to put it /right next/ to the computer. 2. There are no status lights at all on it so you can't tell if it has power or the disk is being accessed. Small gripe, would be nice to have. I've only had it a couple months so I can't speak for long term reliability, but the price was decent (on sale) and it gives me one more level of backup redundancy to help protect my files. Also, I haven't used the native WD utilities so I can't speak for their usability.

I can find no fault with this hard drive. It does what it says it should, and 3.0 USB port Is at least 5x faster then the 2.0 I was using.

So far drive is working fine (only 21 days so far), replaced a seagate that was about 4 years old that was on 24/7 as my primary backup drive.

I bought it to use as a secondary drive for my Xbox One X. Set up was a breeze and is fairly quick for my needs while gaming.

External hard drive worked as expected. Was able to easily back data up to it.

The cable it came with did not work, used an old WD cable from another drive. It works okay now. It's heavy and while it's running, it wobbles if lift it up. Later found out the price went on sale after 2weeks. Somehow don't receive BB reward points for this purchase. It happened to me before, if you exchanged an item with same one, your reward points will be forfeited, be aware of this tactic from BB.
