    When I get notifications that new Xbox One games are going to require 100+ GB of space I realize it's time to add an external drive. I've used Western Digital before and have been very happy.

    Small and compact and large storage of 4TB- usb 3.0 feels solid and unit feels solid. Purchased WD passport before so this has larger storage space- great to use for storing image backup or photos and videos.

    With larger files and backups, physical storage needs to be larger as well. Cloud services are available but expensive for this kind of capacity. This hard drive is working quite well, no issues, had it for 3 months now. Good price for 4 TB. Could be sleeker and lighter but still works fine. Not extremely fast like the solid state drives but not a snail either.

    I like the compact size. Works like it's supposed to! I was originally going to buy a Seagate drive but saw too many bad reviews about drive failure. Save your self the headache and get a WD drive!

    Needed more storage on my PS4, this fixed my problem. Load times do not seem to be affected, however I did not replace the internal drive with an SSD for best performance/comparison.

    I bought this to backup my new laptop and have been very happy with its performance so far. I want to make sure I have backups of photos taken on the road and this makes a good device to carry on trips.

    This is a great way to add an additional layer of backup protection. You'll still want to use a service such as Backblaze but this is a great and portable way to save and move data.

    I purchased this drive specifically for use with my virtual drives, which can be 30-100 g or better. This drive fits the bill - i am able to not only save them, but use them from the drive as well.

    Storage works great with PS4 after update 4.50. I moved all my games I don't play regularly to the drive. I can still play them directly, but they load longer than when the games were on the internal hard drive.

    I had purchased a WD storage device about 3 years ago and I finally reached capacity. This one I purchased was double the capacity and cheaper than the initial one. The response time for read/write is impressive.

    Amazing. Best Buy had a great sale on this hard drive and I couldn’t resist. I’ve always loved Western Digital, and the amount of movies and media I can put on this hard drive for traveling is massive.
