    Great drive, great price. I understand that of the portable USB drives, a) WD is more reliable than Seagate, and b) the Passport is the most reliable of WD's portable drives. So far, short time, I'm happy. I do use a powered USB hub when attaching this.

    This is proving to be a great little drive. I bought it as an external backup for my laptop computer. I perform backups every four days and this drive has performed flawlessly. Well built, this drive should perform for years without any issues. A very good buy.

    After getting tired of having to uninstall games to make room for new games/big DLC updates, I finally bought an external HDD. I couldn't be happier. Now I never have to worry about moving games around. It also blends in perfectly with my PS4. And 5TB for $100 was an easy decision.

    I love it. It takes a while for it modify for MacBooks but it’s so worth it. They price matched this for me so I’m very happy about that. Also, it has a lot of storage as well as very light. It doesn’t make much noise so that’s a plus. Would definitely recommend.

    This external hard drive was necessary to back up what was to be transferred from an older computer to the new one. The techie who set it up recommended it, as did some others, and the price was very reasonable. It also takes up much less space than did the old time capsule.
