    The WD - My Passport 4TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive is a reliable HDD that I use for backing up my 'work in progress.' Read-write speeds are acceptable.

    Easy and convenient to use, I would recommend it to any video game player or work from home person. It is very easy to set up. It allows the owner to save data on a separate device which means if the primary device has problems, you will not lose any data that you can not afford to lose

    Top picks. Plastic built didn’t give me much confidence, but the product itself was fine. Found a better alternative during a promotion, otherwise I would’ve kept it!

    It works just fine. The major item was the amount of storage and it was a large storage external. I store large files, up to 500 mg ea.

    Very good storage. Beware apple users, you need to format the drive before using it. Besides that, it is terrific for storing projects. The connecting cable is not common so treat it well or you'll have trouble ordering a new one online.

    Worked right out of the box. Using it for extra storage with my iMac so reformatted it to APFS with no problems. Great for storing photos, pictures, videos, etc. that chew up internal disk space.

    This portable hard drive is easy to use and really easy to carry. You could use it on a windows or Apple computer. I own a Apple MacBook Pro and it was easy to install the software to use it. It’s great to keep your files safe and secure.

    Have used this brand in the past and it has never failed. Bought this for my laptop knowing that I would never fill it up. I would recommend this to to anyone needing a back up. The red doesn't get lost on my black desk.
