Serves our purpose fantastically
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought to extend the capacity of our PS4. Works flawlessly for that purpose. We had swapped the original 500 GB drive for a 2 TB a few years ago. Now we run that plus this 4 TB drive externally. Easy upgrade.

External hard drive wins
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The external drive is great. I thought the project that I purchased for would consume the device but it has loads of storage and is small enough to easily travel with.

So far, so good.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought as a hard drive add on for xbox 1, storage was maxed. Now I've got breathing room. Response times are good with usb 3.0, no lag. Usually do Seagate but took a chance because of price. So far, so good!

Value storage from reputable brand
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good price per terabyte, especially from a top rated brand. Paid a little extra for red instead of black. External storage is a must-have for GoPro videos, pictures, graphics files and music.

Compact way to store info, share with others
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My last external drive was huge compared to this, with less storage and giving off more heat. This one is the size of a coffee cup and lets me move files from one computer to another quickly and safely.

Came unformatted and initially not recognized.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Western Digital External 4TB Hard Drive came unformatted and was not recognized by the Western Digital apps such as Utilities and Security. Disk Management showed that the device just had Raw Data. Had to go online to find out right parameters to properly format the drive and put a file system on it. On the Western Digital website, it said that the external drives are suppose to be formatted. Also, my previous drives alway came with recent versions of the apps, but this one didn’t. Price was good, and drive works after I formatted it.
