    The 4TB WD My Passport is only slightly thicker than their 1TB model, which is impressive. I have a 1TB My Passport from almost 10 years ago and it still works well, so I'm hoping for the same longevity from this one!

    I bought this 4TB drive because my 2TB was no longer sufficient. Set-up was easy and straightforward. I had my data backed up in very short order. I have had the drive for about a month. I will follow up if I have any issues.

    4TB with no need for a power cord. What a wonderful time we live in. It's just a little plastic brick, so not much to review. You plug it in, and you have more storage. I use it on my Xbox and it's faster than the 2TB I replaced.

    I was a bit skeptical about the drive as it's new to the market and 4tb usb powered. But looks like WD keeping its quality. I use it almost everyday and no issues so far. Hopefully I will have the same impression in the long run.

    I travel a lot for my job and my content needs to be saved. WD has always had my back. When you are on the road doing photo/vid work and editing constantly, 4TB is the best to have with you.

    Bought this for my PS4, plugged it in and worked fine. Unfortunately PS4 doesn't automatically start the process for getting the drive ready so you have to do some steps on the PS4, but otherwise works fine.

    We had purchased a different manufacturers HDD for use with an xbox one but it played all cut scenes jittery and skipping. We finally discovered that it was the brand of hdd that was the problem, this has worked like a charm.

    As an IT manager we have purchased over 25 of these for use in different projects and applications. In the 5+ years we've used this brand we don't have a failure. I purchased two of them for personal use as well.

    Wanted an external memory for my Xbox one. The ones that said X box one where either green or white color. This one matches the Xbox one x black and works exactly the same as the Xbox one brand.

    Western Digital is my "go to" when it comes to hard drives. As a photographer, I am always backing up my work. I have several of these due to their reliability and quality.

    I love WD Hard drives and have a ton that I use in my business for storage. In 20 years I have never had a failure (unlike the drives from seagate that fail all the time).
