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 got this storage for my boyfriend and he has been able to download so many games. Not only is it a large amount of storage but it’s for a great price.

    This 4tb hard drive works with the Xbox one and requires no additional power cord. Very portable so it can be taken with you to play downloaded games on another Xbox one.

    Purchased this for extra storage on my PS4. It works like a charm. The gold color makes it look like a block of cheese but I personally don't mind.

    This product is as advertised. It’s better to store a “ga zillion” of my wife’s photos on this device rather than it clogging up my computer. Lol!

    Great back up hard drive that’s easy to use. Great if you don’t trust putting personal or financial information in the cloud.

    Love that these are now available in colors! Reliable and cost effective external/backup storage. Now if we could just have them as internal hard drives for laptops!

    Bought this as an external HDD for my PS4 and was blown away by how fast the install and read speeds were. Ridiculously fast and makes the internal feel like a snail.

    4 TB unit can be password protected to provide privacy and protection. Only improvement would be if it were available as a solid state hard drive.

    I needed geek squad repair service for my home PC. This was recommended so I could back up my files just in case items would be lost on my PC while they were repairing it. This held all of my files, documents, and photos. I now have them backed up on my Passport with plenty of room for more storage,

    Had to get this for my Xbox one. Needed more storage. Plug in the USB on the back of the Xbox and good to go. Just transfer all your games to the external. Super easy.

    Small physical size yet large internal drive. Think I will convert all my large WD book sized external hard drives to this small size and free up some shelf space!

    I was debating between this and the WD Easystore and ultimately went with this because of the longer warranty. It works great with my Mac and I have no complaints.

    Seems a little slower than my 3gb external but still fast enough to run games with faster load times on PS4.
