    I had the WD easystore 4 TB hard drive, but it did not handle the concrete walkway I dropped it on too well. This is what I purchased to replace it with. It seems to be working quite well. Using it mainly for school work, but intend to use it for music projects as well.

    Good place to begin if you're looking to back up your work. Especially if it's a lot of pictures. These take a lot of space. The size is great, big enough to locate reasonably easy. While a thumb drive may be able to back up a lot of data, they are also easy to lose.

    My Passport External Hard Drive purchase was a must for me. I have been working with my computer for Zoom teaching and have had to move files in order to retain the memory on my computer. This is easy to use and I can retrieve the files if I need them!

    Purchased this item to replace an older USB HDD that I use to backup my media files - music, TV shows and movies. I always like to have a couple of offline backups in case of disaster and felt it was time to update the technology. So far, no issues, the color stands out.

    Small but mighty. I used this portable drive to hold all my download music collection and movies in which i've collected over time. This device can be plugged into smart tv's and used as if you are on a computer. Excellent for the price .

    Just what I needed. WD Passport hard drives continues to be one of the best for speed transfers to other electronics sources. Plus, it an easy recognizable aqua blue color that help not to confuse with other blue color hard drives.

    Bought a few of these to backup and migrate some older system info from one host to another. With the WD software works great and has been FAST (usb 3.X) and very reliable.

    Lots of storage space; useful for regularly backing files from computers and smartphones; useful for transferring files from one computer to another. Excellent price. Purchased in late 2019 and I expect this to last 5 years or more. Pretty blue color.

    I bought this portable hard drive to back up photos on our laptops. This is my second one. We've had a laptop just stop working, but by using one of these, I only lost a few days of data, but I've lost thousands of photos due to flooding and old age.

    Initially bought a different hard drive from Amazon that was glitchy and slow. Returned that and bought this instead - games are now downloading in a matter of minutes. I'm extremely happy with this, recommending to my family. Worth the price.

    Just plug in and follow the easy instructions. No hassle. I recommend this to anyone. I used this on a Mac for a colleague of mine. Now she can utilize all the other space on her Mac for personal use while keeping work related items on this drive.
