I decided to go paperless so, I bought the 5TB MyPassport to scan documents I need to keep and throw away the hard copy. This is a great product for doing just that

Great high capacity back up drive. Nice to have something local than risk everything in cloud. Works great and replaces an older model with less capacity.

The WD 5TB portable hard drive is excellent as it is very fast and does not overheat. Simply plug into any pc and you can view all of your documents and files you have saved. The hard drive is also very secure as it has built in hardware encryption. I keep all of my files stored on removable hard drives as a back up, in addition to the cloud, just in case anything were to happen such as power loss.

I am genuinely happy with the overall performance of this device. Would recommend.

Easy to use, strong quality work perfect on desk and light

Amazing storage anf was a great gift for the person that needed it for their laptop!

I've always liked WD desktop drives. Reliable and a good price for the storage space. Plan ahead (don't wait until your old disk is full) and you can usually find substantial sales.

Works as advertised, no problems. Easy to install/configure/secure.

Always backup your data. With this device it couldn’t be easier, and you'll have peace of mind knowing your data is backed up and secure.

Easy to set up and use, slick look, you can carry it anywhere and use it everywhere.

I have used several WD external drives, but the biggest I had was 2 TB, so I was using multiple ones to backup everything. Now I can store everything on this Large capactiy 5TB drive with room to spare

Just what i needed to keep ALL my photos in one place. So elated to have the storage

Always good to have a backup. Can’t really run programs from it, but good storage option.

This looks great and I need space on my computer - so bought it to fill up with videos and make space on the laptop. Only trouble is -- I haven't started using it yet! My bad. I have it on my list to do -- and hope it will do the trick :)

Fast, easy to connect large storage drive. No external power needed, which is nice not to have to use another power adapter. Comes with cord, plug in and go!

I purchased this drive primarily as a backup drive for photos taken in high resolution, approximately 12 mb each. It has worked flawlessly in the background as I set it up on a schedule.

Easy formatting and 5TB is perfect for all my game installs.

I purchased this to serve as a backup drive in case I have to evacuate the house quickly -- just unplug and go. The Western Digital software that comes with the drive is also useful.

This is a good external drive that I used to back up my system for offline storage. I have always had good luck with WD drives - internal and external.

Beautiful keepsake. 2T is lots of room for my music storage.
