    Very easy to use. I want to make sure I backed up my computer before I took it to Best Buy for an update. Performed as expected. Very happy.

    Works great for what I needed. I would suggest purchasing some sort of protections for it such as a carrying case. The product is sensitive with drop from very short distances.

    Works flawlessly with my PS5 so far. Since the drive is so small, it can be "tucked" away so you have a clean setup.

    Large enough to consolidate all your drives that you've had throughout the years and quick enough to not have any issues when using heavily.

    WD hard drives are great... haven't had one of these fail yet. I've had other brands fail and have issues, but WD always seems to make a good product.
