Customer Ratings & Reviews

Item got here in one day from being ordered, but in that Time...someone was hateful enough to compltetely trash the package. The box was completely ripped-clear across-from one side to the other-obviously forcively. This was done on two of the four sides...seemingly violently. Then the box that the external hardrive came in was near crushed on one side like someone threw it with force at the ground...leaving deep impressions and indentations on it. I had Picked up the package nearly-immediately after the package's delivery...it had the appearance of a hate-crime and vandalism upon first sight. As i had looked at the package i had thought to my self..."the package looks as though someone was in a hurry to open Their present and did Not like it...so They had threw it with extreme force and prejudice...out of a fit of Anger." Damaged goods, tampered-with goods and late arrivals...reminds me Why for over two decades i had preferred to shop at a store...and not online. Same day pick-up, choice of stock, returns welcomed same-day of cause for concern reported-within coveraged time periods and Any concern with the product's mistreatment is at the cash register where employees responsible could have Their supervisor address the issue with occasionally considerate results. Results that on occasion assure that the employee will not do that to another person-usually by extra labor, docked-pay for damaged goods or in a worst-case scenario...being let-go and fired...only to inevitably be replaced by someone who wants the job More and is willing to do a good job-or better than the previous employee-or else the cycle Then repeats itself. For mistreatment based-off of singling someone or multiple people-out is discrimination...and i have had a lot of that similar sort of treatment with packages these past two years. The item was on sale, but arrived damaged and Not properly cared for...Any item ranging near-to or over $100 ought to have better care in treatment than the average package...for some of Those items can Not be replaced. It is unprofessional to treat something pricey in such a way to say the least. Not everyone has enough currency for Those sort of Matters to Not be of a Concern to Them. For Some Time spent hashing-out returns or refunds are just as undesirable as Those very Businesses willingness to do so. These Anxieties should Not have to be common place. My personal experience put aside. I am familiar to these external hardrives and i like Them as of yet. Item is Neatly packaged and does Not need to be pkugged into an outlet to function...just a coresponding USB capable ready to use connection...devices will vary. For that i suggest changing the data's file type. Item is small, portable and durable...also comes in a few different colors for personalized preference. Being compact means easy to store away some place for future use. Each and every hardrive does not permit the amount presented. That is usually preset and determined by the manufacturer varyingly. Meaning that some hardrives hidden storage space is being used at varying amounts of storage space based off the-usually small amount in comparisson made available for use-to properly run the software, store and maintain the data. Usually with a few accesible files already available for storing the data on a back-up online profile of sorts and/or added features of security by being redirected to an online site. Though some only come with software to make the hardrive have easy access and compatability...though these features all vary depending upon name brand or logo. The more storage space an external hardrive has...the more storage space-usually in gigabytes-that the manufactures will in accessable storage space already taken-up and unavailable...that amount is a variable-despite two different hardrives from different sources holding a total amount of same storage space. Though aside from my personal delivery experience...People can consider the rest as my own personal opinion that Some might agree with, partial agree with, not at all agree with...or just do not care to read further into-whatever the reason might be. As for price; the listing was greatly reduced, showing that the item was on sale. So to say the least about that; it was a deal for myself-and might still be for another later on, but the reality...is that in a few years to a decade or more...there will eventually be external hardrives that carry double digits in terabytes of data or more...for about the same amount. So for now; Those that can, might or will put These external hardrives to use, yes this currently an appropriate listing price...for myself at least. Though there are some external hardrives up to 12 terabytes already available-Those are Not yet portable devices-Those require to be plugged-in an outlet for Their use of convenience. Other than that...the product description already tells the buyer most of the descriptions of publicly considered need to know information.

Real easy connect. Good transfer rate. Plenty of room. You might find one on sales during Black Friday or Cyber Monday. Still good price.

What can I say? All my portable HDD have been from this brand for years and so far I've never had a problem! It's a great product for a great price!

Works well in itself, the software needs updated for Windows 11, I disabled the software. The unit works well with indexing, and has a quick response time.

Boots up quick, large storage capacity. Very hapy with my purchase.

I love to use it. Very nice product. I can put all of my memory in here~ ^^

Works great with my Studio. Would buy it again, and will recomennd it

plug and play. easy to install software and get 1st backup complete.

good size hard drive for storing whatever files you need comes in various storage sizes - great for keeping large files or just as a back up drive for time machine or whatever

Everybody is helpfull, and I bought my harddrive very reasonable price.

Fast and plenty of space for huge files! This is my second one!

This has been an amazing product for me and has been so useful!

It's not as fast in data transfer as I expected based on the posted description

It is a nice compact portable hard drive. The data read/write speed is good.

Very fast and excellent storage. This is for ever when buy this usb

I use this storage for my xbox one s and i love it !!!

This passport along with another two that I have work great. The only gripe that I have is that they take their sweet time booting up....the 8's and the 12 I have come online immediately and these three take forever......otherwise, they operate as they should....

This device is an incredible deal for the price. Anyone that has ever used an external hard drive knows exactly what to expect with this. The transfer speed is impressive and it is nearly silent. I'm going to be buying another one of these soon.

Works good. Reads and writes fast. Used it for ps5 screenshot and video clips.

Good for the value. 4 stars only because it’s very smooth on all sides so it slides easily off things like lap desks, angled laptop stands, cooling stands, or if just not your day.. also, transfer rate is slower than other WD Drives with the same capacity and price range
