    WD makes a nice, small, and sleek portable hard drive that has the USB 3.0 speeds to add to the package. I'd recommend it because it also comes with the included encryption and locking feature which is a nice touch.

    Needed an external HD for my Xbox one. Hemmed and hawed over what to get. This one seemed like the best choice and I wasn’t dissapointed. Just plug it in and click a few prompts and you’re good to go.

    We travel frequently, and do not always have internet access. This provides excellent backup to pictures, documents, etc. Useful at home, also, for those of us who would rather not rely on "the cloud".

    A Best Buy store manager at the Novi, Mi location recommended this device based on my two computer backup needs. Set up was super easy and I have peace of mind my data is backed up on a home device and not the cloud.

    I brought this product for my 16 year old son. He is able to purchase more games for his PlayStation 4 game system and save them, without having to erase any of his previous games he's purchased in the past.

    Computer was literally running so slow because I take so many pictures and videos. But it's running alot smoother now that I've moved all my large files to this hard drive. It's so easy to use and convenient.

    This is my fifth passport external HD purchase. I have two for my PC, one for PS4, one for Xbox One X and it be as a gift. Works flawlessly on all of them. If only the Switch can do external HD support.

    I store my music in lossless format because much of it is my own LPs, CDs, and tapes. The capacity suits my purpose, and re-formatting over to Mac disc format was a breeze. The drive seems to be working fine.
