    Bought it to store my Xbox games on it. Works perfect. I can even set automatic downloads over the internet to store on harddrive instead of Xbox and I'm ready to play when I get home!

    This is my 10th hard drive from WD. I always pick up one from them because they haven't failed me yet in the 5 years or so that I've been using them. Good transfer speeds if using 3.0.

    Purchased this for my boys’ PS4 because they didn’t have any room to download games in the system. They are very happy with this product! It’s easy to use, just plug and play!

    These WD external USB devices make great backup drives. There are several different sizes, I got the 2 TB one only because it was how much space I figured I needed. Good price on them too.

    This is my second one of these. I am OCD about backing up so I use two drives to back up. One for Time Machine and one for general backup. I am going back to buy another for sons xbox.

    You can use software that comes with it if you want. I wanted to use software I already had. Just had to plug it in and use it. System backup and syncing software both worked fine.

    Set up is easy and copying files to the drive is easy. I love the fact that you can lock the drive with a password. I wish it was a little faster but you can't have everything.

    This one was on sale because it was blue... the black one was more expensive. Also, there was another that was specified for OSX use, but this one works well after a simple reformat.
