Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this for additional storage for my Xbox one. It does its job well enough, but it was generating an intermittent, high-pitched whine that was audible over my gaming headset at times. I ultimately decided to go with an SSD for quieter and faster performance, but would still recommend this product for those who don't want to shell out the extra $ for an SSD.

Excellent drive to replace my 3 year old back up drive. It's less than the cost of the last one due to advancing technology. It's also much slimmer and quieter. It will never match my WD SSD External Drive but for the price it is an excellent drive.

Good product for the better price. Though SSD is better. For once in a while use this is the product to choose

Great product to have. Buy an extra to have on hand.

This data storage/bank looks sleek and works fast. No overheating, no noise. I have been using it for over a month. Works great so far!!!

I have purchased several of these units for my clients The backup software that WD includes with this unit is easy to use and very dependable. And the price is unbeatable. I highly recommend using a Portable Drive instead of an external drive for backup.

Bought this to use as a backup for photos off digital camera. It took a little bit of work to be seen by my laptop but once connected it works great. Was able to get photos backed up easily and quickly. Does exactly what an external HDD should do.

Needed option to secure surge of information as transition to pandemic virtual world. Excellent option to relieve space on hone devices. Great option to back up information in secure method. Price was best by far across several options.

Excellent price by Best Buy as it was the same price as 1Tb. Easily to setup.

Fast and easy to use - my most recent in a series of these drives that I have bought for home and work, all still working dependably.

This external hard drive has been so helpful for me with my business. I’m able to carry around so much more as compared to the older versions

WD drives have always been stable and have worked well for video storage. I have several of these and they work great! Best Buy is asking for a review on the 2tb drive, but I actually bought the 5tb.

I purchased this product because my 1TB SSD of this same brand and type was completely filled up so I needed a upgrade and once again I got got exactly the same quality and ease of use as my first hard-drive. Great product at an affordable price.

I needed more storage for my PS4. I purchased this after the recommendation of a Best Buy staff member who was very knowledgeable with this product. This was an excellent purchase and was easy to format. Works better than expected!

Love it. Super portable, great transfer speeds, and easy set up.

I was looking for "My Passport" like I had previously, but they did not have the one I wanted, but the 2 TB on hand. It works just as well.

I needed a large HD for my music library. This is a great product. Can't believe how lightweight and thin t is. Price was good, about $69. The music loaded quickly and plays well. I have bought dozens of WD HDs. They always run well.

So far, so good. It does what you would expect. Good storage solution.

This is a great value and it works right out of the box. No specific software to set up or register. Good tool to back up important files.

This product really helped complete the project I was working on. Holding a lot of videos to add more space to my computer
