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.

This is a workhorse and solid drive. Very pleased with this one, it has held up well. I've had a few "off brands" and I can say that when you want to keep your stuff and not lose a drive, WB delivers.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.
