Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have 20 of these from Beat Buy... a life saver! I back up thousands of images and video files for my busuness... and sleep well at night knowing they are safe.

Quick and easy setup on Xbox. No hassles. Works great.

I’m so glad I chose the 4 TB. I didn’t realize how many files I was going to back up. I love how easy it is to back up to this external drive.

I've ran 6TB NASes on Linux (old school) that were heavy, noisy, big. I decided my 10 year old Intel NAS (yes Intel used to make them) needed replacing and this drive is tiny and light and FAST.

Lot's of space, great price. WD My Book storage units have been reliable for years. I just bought two 4TB units and they passed rigorous I/O tests prior to use.

Bought this to sit on my desk and it looks and works great. I keep all my photos on the hard drive and will be getting a second one the have a backup copy.

Formatted this drive with 2 partitions. First is used as a Time Machine for my Mac. Second used for media storage. No issues at all. Great.

Excellent storage, it's compatible with a Ps5, and easy to set up!

what more could you ask for. best external hard drive!

I purchased this after the PS4 update that allowed external drives and it was a breeze to set up and it's been working flawlessly since. Couldn't be happier.

Western Digital has always been reliable for me and for the price their 3 or 4 GB drives offer a great option for backing up my files.

Small desktop footprint. Light weight. Tough shell. Much better than a USB key drive for small mobile backing up. Definitely an improvement over the MyBook.

4tb is allot of storage and for $100 it's hard to pass up. Great external drive for music, movies and photos. Love Western Digital!

I needed a hard drive with tons of space and this one fit the bill exactly! So easy to use with no problems whatsoever. I highly recommend it!

Simple and great! I have this hooked up to my xbox one s for additional storage and works like a charm!

pretty good, runs well, except when it randomly goes into read only mode and I have to wait it out. Hasnt done that in a year though.

Good price for the amount of storage you get. I have it attached to my server and use it as the server backup. So yes, I backup and then backup my backup.

I got this for a family member as an archive drive, and while it's early days yet, WD remains the best hard drive vendor -if- one buys the drives anywhere besides Amazon or Ali-Express. Genuine WDs are really worth the peace of mind. This external drive is not the fastest, but that's fine because it's meant for archival\backup and data transport by lay folks. Among its peers it's middle-of-the-pack. Anyway, I read that the drive inside of this enclosure is of better stock than the one in the other cheaper consumer WD external drives.

Simple to use. Just "plug and play." This unit is durable. Everything is included in the package. This product works with Windows and Apple. I never had a problem with WD External Hard Drives. Just remember to disconnect the proper way. And it will last you beyond the expected use. Best Buy is great because they do price matching. And . . . this WD Hard Drive is readily available at most Best Buy Stores, including here in Hawaii

I am completely satisfied with my new hard drive. The speed improvement coming from a USB 2.0 device is very noticeable. The unit is quiet and sturdy.
