    I bought this to expand my PS4 drive. It was easy to set up, easy to use, and so far hasn't failed me. It only allowed me to move applications over, not my saved game data, but for me it wasn't an issue as my saved data is stored in my PS Plus cloud. Sorry, I can't get too technical about this product, but it works great with my PS4 Slim and PS4 PRO.

    We purchased this external hard drive for our daughter - to extend the storage for her PS4. Works beautifully and it's going to be a very long time before we will have to worry about hard drive storage space for her game-play. Thinking of purchasing another one for our home computer. HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!

    I decided I needed to replace my previous external hard drive before it decided to give out, which I got when I purchased this Desktop back in 2012. Although for some reason around the first days after when I first hooked it up, my OS seemed to want to bog down at times in trying to access certain items, it is now working ship shape with no further complaints.

    I purchased the WD - My Book 4TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive primarily to back-up my laptop. The laptop that I use it on is for daily work use and my education. I was concerned that if the laptop crashed, I would loose all of my hard work. This external HD makes regular back-ups easy and with 4TB of storage... I can save all of my work.

    The instructions were easy to understand. I had no issues with regards to attaching the cables and the initial start-up. With the end of Windows 7, I have a lot of files to back-up before I download Windows 10. Hopefully, the ease of my initial experience of downloading to the external hard drive will continue.
