    Good hard drive for the price. I was looking for low cost storage so wasn’t really concerned with speed.

    Super easy to use and soooo much storage space! The price at the time i bought it was cheaper than the 2T storage available. So it was a win win for me.

    I purchased this with an M.2 SSD for my PS5. I used it to store my PS4 titles. The games played from this HDD run smoothly. For the price to storage value, this was a great deal. There were others HDDs on-line, but didn't want to risk getting a knock-off, so when I saw Best Buy had it the same price as on-line, I knew it would be a good deal. All my games fit on the 5TB model I bought with room for more. I plane on getting additional PS4 games so am pleased with this purchase. Game play is A++ I have not noticed any difference from playing when the game is on the HDD versus the console memory.

    Bought this because I was tired of carrying around multiple usb flash drives. Super convenient, slim, portable, has enough storage and still easy to carry. Only downside for me was I bought it at full price but then once the 2 week return or exchange period ended, it went on sale for $90 :/

    We had a ton of photos that needed storage and organizing, and this 5T storage device worked great. Easy to transfer and small enough to take with you when needed.

    This was immensely easy to use. Plug it in, pick the format you need (pc or mac) and start moving your files to it for storage. I easily transferred over 22,000 files and still not even at halfway point.

    The external hard drive was a great purchase. My laptop has a lot of space but surprising I ran out of space due to lots of photos. The hard drive has more space than I can imagine. Product is easy to use as well.

    Using 3 My Passport Drives - 2 2TB's previously bought plus This 5TB drive I just purchased. Bought all drives from Best Buy and can't beat the price verses the products. Only bonus feature I have found is that the 5TB drive will support "Boast Feature" if you need it.
