    This product allowed me to have enough room to download 15 more games I had previously purchased and has allowed me to also free up space on my Xbox internal storage as well.

    Works great! I’m a photographer and videographer and these help to not fill my computer’s hard drive. I buy them a handful at a time.

    Bought this for my boyfriend for his birthday. It was on sale and was a much better deal than anywhere else I had looked. He loves it. He doesn't have to delete stuff on his PS4 anymore. Super straightforward and easy setup.

    This is my second unit. I loved the first one so much that I bought the second without any hesitation. Its very fast for what I do (backup my Documents, Pictures, etc.). Didn't bother to note down the timings but it was fast.

    This has to be the best hard drive i've bought in a long time. It is way smaller than my old one and does not come with power supply brick which is awesome! I highly recommend this if you need extra storage. I use this for my xbox aswell.

    My apologies for reviewing the wrong external hard drive. This is the one that works with Chromebook and has twice the storage space than the other one.

    Ive always enjoyed the durability and dependability Western Digital has brought. I plan to use this for the posters and Youtube shows I run for our wrestling promotion. You can find South Central Wrestling on Facebook and on line at southcentralwrestling.com and catch our Rewind shows at SCW Arkansas on YouTube.

    Bought this for my linux based laptop. I do my own backups, and I only save what I need. This works perfectly for saving videos, music, and files that I can take everywhere. Works very well, no problems. If you need extra space, buy one.

    My Passport 2TB stores a lot of information, but does not take up a lot of space. The information is clear, just like it was in the computer or on the internet. Perfect for storing information such as downloaded books.

    Needed more space and this is coming in handy. I take a lot of photos and develop flyers for clients and needed the extra space to saved important files. Greatest investment with laptop purchase.

    Can’t go wrong with WD external hard drives. I have a 1 tb that I use for extra storage on my xbox one and got this one for same purpose for my PS4 but this 2tb model was less expensive than the 1 tb version on Amazon is

    It's red so I'm less likely to lose it. It holds all the data from two laptops and has space for more. I really appreciated the support I received from Trey at Geek Squad Torrance. So far, so good.

    I love the these come in different colors so that I know which one I have certain things stored on it. It is a must to back up precious photographs and other important documents. Don't trust it to a cloud.

    I requested the use of the Western Digital drive because of a previous purchase of a WD 4TB that has been serving me without a problem. The quality and service is really appreciated. Thank you.
