    We bought this for our daughter, who is a budding photographer for her yearbook at school. This gives her an easy way to store all her photos without using up all the storage space on her laptop.

    I love this Portable Hard Drive. I use it for an external backup drive. It uses spinning platters but thats ok because it's still fast. If a customer can afford it then go with an SSD but for the price and performance this has great value because it's 2TB and an SSD that's 2TB is really high compared to this product. The customer needs to decide if they can be happy with this or if they want to dish out a lot more money for the SSD and higher speeds.

    Western Digital has a great reputation and it's not hard to see why. There is nothing to set up with this drive, simply plug it in and go. There's tons of storage for all your multimedia files.

    I use this exclusively on my iMac but transferred all my PC files to it and then to the iMac. Now I use it strictly as a back up and to store all my files on when working with work projects.

    Easy To Use With PS4

    Works great and it's super easy to use. Plug and play setup with my Playstation 4 and 2TB is plenty of additional storage space to add to the 500gb internal hdd. As an added bonus - it matches the PS4 cosmetically, not just the black case but also the color of the LED indicator. This is the second Western Digital Passport that I own, I've also had a 500gb for about 10 years and it also works great. Very happy with WD and their products!

    I had a recent power outtage and lost everything on my hard drive. I never had a backup before now. This was inexpensive, easy to use, and a no-brainer for computer users. Highly recommend.

    I intended to purchase the Xbox One specific drive found in the gaming department, but found that this works just as great, without the larger price point! It was immediately recognized by my Xbox One, and gave me the options to format it right away. Works great for all the digital game purchases, and I don't have to pick and choose what games I have installed anymore. Don't experience any lag when loading! Great drive for the price!
