Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the ample storage, ease of use, and reliability of the My Passport 4TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive. Many appreciate its compact size and the fast transfer speeds offered by the USB 3.0 connection, while some find the included software less than ideal and have noted minor design preferences. The price-to-performance ratio also receives positive feedback.

    I bought this to use for my PlayStation 4. I wanted something portable and it was a quick plug and play. It's small and fits anywhere near the PlayStation. All I had to do was format and that's it.

    I bought this hard drive for my PlayStation 4 and it works beautifully. I am now able to download more games without having to delete any for space.

    YES it works with X Box One, will hold your games and tons of them BUT...It can also hold photos/music/data but not with games. The file format would have to be changed. So my guy got this as a gift, now he can take it to his friends and just bring this little drive and sign on to his gamer tag and have his games and stats. He loves it, we are getting another just for photos and music. Can pass it back and forth its so small.

    This is a 4TB USB 3.0 drive. It is great for backing up large media and photo libraries fast and easily. Nice to have in my travel bag along with a laptop that couldn’t possibly hold 4TB

    It is a great HDD, it has a lot of space. I'm using it to hold several virtual machines and I have enough space for so much more. It is dependable and good quality. I highly recommend it!

    I purchased this for an amazing price, I think it was on sale but even if not, the price is very reasonable. I picked this up to use as an extended storage for my Ps4 Pro, and it works amazingly. Just plug it in and the Ps4 formats it. Then BOOM, instead of 1 TB you have a little under 5 TBs. You can load your games onto it, and play the games directly off of the external HD. You don’t have to reupload the game onto your console before playing it. Loading speed for the Ps4 seems a few seconds faster as well. The upload sped for the HD seems fairly decent as well. Can’t beat the usability of this for the price. So far so good after almost a month of use.

    Great Drive for PS4 Extended Storage

    I have a PS4 Pro and upgraded the internal storage to a small SSD and then using this one to offload games that I do not play as often. It really keeps my load times down and have a ton of storage for my PlayStation. The drive is super quite and can't hear it run even while under a load. I have purchased many WD products and will continue to.

    WD drives are my go-to option for backup and storage expansion needs. Whether you need one drive or five, WD has a solution that is easy to install and setup and is cost effective.
