    The WD hard drive has proven to be pretty good, this is my 3rd to purchase and I do not have any regrets on purchasing WD products. Great price and great piece of hardware.

    Purchased as an upgrade for my Xbox One. Had to be formatted, but after connecting to the console, the console did everything for me. Truly plug and play at it's finest.

    I needed a couple of drives to transfer data for a project. These were available, priced well, and work. I have used Western Digital for a long time, and they just work.

    It does exactly what it says it can. My bonus was being able to quickly transfer data from an older computer. And now I have the flexibility to take it on the go with me

    Broke 2 of mine previously years ago and I needed one on a trip I was going to. Haven't used it much so I can't say much but it definitely is faster then my old ones.

    Great external. This is my third WD Passport and I am satisfied with each one. As a photographer, I need a lot of external storage for my photos and these work great.

    I purchased two of these. Both worked fine on my Macbook Pro. Neither work on my Xbox One S. The are USB powered, so not needing a power cord is nice. They are about the same size as an iPhone 7 Plus but a tad thicker and wider. They aren't the fastest drives, but they get the job done. So far so good.

    This external hd is a plug and play. You need to know nothing to get it working. Whether it's for an Xbox or an Apple Time Machine, it's only a couple simple quick steps!

    Love this. Really fast transfer speeds and it often goes on sale. I just wish the material wasn't glossy on the outside because it gets fine scratches very easily.
