I very happy with the drive although the light on the front blinks a lot. I'm not accessing the drive very often and it's usually sleeping when I open it in explorer. I'm guessing windows is indexing the large drive. Anyways, it does what I need, making room for more digital hoarding :)

Purchased WD 4gig at bestbuy on sale for use with the family Xbox. The device is quiet, reliable and fast. Must to my surprise I was able to find an online price cheaper than the in store price. A great deal at a great price.

I use this as an external hard drive for my Xbox One. I have not had any issues with this device since its purchase and installation. Works great with my Xbox One. The Xbox detected it without a problem and I was able to format.

I bought this hard drive as a back up for my digital photo library. Overall, it's a nice design and the USB 3 performance makes transfers speedy. Also have another drive like this that I use for my Time Machine backups.

Have used WD for years and they always provide products that work well and for a reasonable price. Purchased this drive to backup the important stuff like pictures, emails, and other documents that need to hang around for day to day use.

My computer indicated my hard drive was failing...I went to Best Buy and bought this external hard drive 4TB with plenty of room for the ten years worth of pictures I was afraid I was going to lose. This worked relatively fast given the amount of pictures I had and when my hard drive failed and I replaced I was able to transfer from the HD back onto the computer.. SAVED ALL OF MY PICS AND IMPORTANT DOCS!

I was looking for a large external hard drive to "clean out" my old, dying laptop that was full of pictures, music and documents. I was beyond pleased with this product. It was so easy to use and understand. You just plug it in and drag and drop your stuff! The only problem I encountered was unplugging the device. I went to safely remove the hardware but it kept saying the device could be removed. In an effort not to just unplug the USB from my computer, a quick google search informed me it was a common problem with this device, and what the best remedy is. Overall, happy with my purchase! Was delivered quickly and on time. Highly recommended!
