    Helped me make more room to install games for PS4. Very simple setup. Plug in and PS4 automatically formats the drive for use. Games load smoothly. No issues whatsoever.

    I bought this for it's 2 TB capacity so I could copy one hard drive to another. It worked great, and after setting up my new laptop, I now use it to back up the data daily.

    I needed to free up space on my Lenovo laptop in a hurry, and was happy with the speed in which photos were transferred. My laptop is purring again!

    Love the small footprint yet versatile hard drives. Simple connection and you can reformat to your type of computer operating system, i.e. Windows or Mac OS.

    Found this as a clearance item. Guess people care about the color of a backup drive! Easy to install software and quick backup of my 8yr old Samsung laptop running Win10.

    Backup software is no longer valid, so be prepared to spend some time with customer support if you don't already know how to set up a backup in WIN10. Otherwise, the drive works great.

    What can I say, looks expensive so find it on sale. Picked red because I like the color and I am able to distinguish from the black one I use for another computer.

    This replaced a much clunkier 256 MB brick that I had to plug into electric power plus my computer's USB port. I'm going to buy another one for my partner's machine.

    While the device is straightforward I'm not happy with the fact I have to have separate software on my machine. The WD software wants to pop-up every time the computer is started.

    I wish I waited a few weeks because BestBuy is selling a 5TB External for the same price, same brand. I guess timing is everything. I could've had an extra 3T.
