    Have always trusted Western Digital, not a bad price for the amount of storage you're getting. Not that much bigger than your standard external hard drive. Definitely recommend.

    Excellent portable hard drive. 5TB serves my needs but I would not recommend less. I had a 1TB drive that I thought was large enough, but I had to replace it much sooner than I expected.

    I was looking for an external hard drive that wouldn't take up a lot of room but had lots of space. I am a photographer and pictures need space!!! This did not disappoint.

    Best external hard drive. Much faster than internal HDD and non-comparable to the old 2.0 USB hard drives. Small, but yet reliable.
