Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is best thing since sliced bread. It is small and easy to carry. I can put all my information on it and have it with me all the time. I should have purchased this a long time ago. I needed to store some old files on it and it worked perfectly. The salesman was over whelmed with customers but took the time to help me and explain the different items. He knew his job!

It works fine. Finely doth it work. And exceptionally well, too.

Perfect size for my cluttered desk with plenty of storage!

You can never have too much hard drive space! These are the best for keeping all of my important files, photos, and videos.

This little gem did the trick. It's slim profile requires extra attention so you don't lose it. I found the performance to be outstanding and the encryption feature never hurts. Best Buy had a great sale and I was able to get it at a great deal. You should replace your bulky shoe box with this deck of cards.

I purchased this as an external storage for my PS5 and it has worked flawlessly so far

True WD reliability. I've been using this 5TB portable hard drive to back up all my files before upgrading my Windows 10 gaming desktop to Windows 11. The backup worked flawlessly. No issues. I'm pleased with this external hard drive.

I specifically bought this USB drive for my xbox and have to say that this does the job really well. This drive is not only cheaper than the ones specifically designed for Xbox, but has a much better read/write, not to mention much cheaper and more space.

Does what it’s suppose to do, not the fastest but gets the job done.

So I was in the market for a new hard drive. Now a days, seems like I need a new 5tb every month. I had to grab this one up while I saw it on sale. I have other WD hard drives, and none of them have failed me yet (knock on wood). Very satisfied with my purchase, does exactly what I need it to do. Which is to hold and store my videos that I do for different clients.

Easy install, small footprint, great storage device for the price.

I love my passport. I can save all my documents on it, and the most important thing is that I can carry it wherever I go.

Light portable hard drive, easy use and storage, good price.

What an improvement over the disk technology. This replaced a 1T disk backup. It took very little time to move the 1T to the 5T now I have plenty of storage and the backup program works again - much faster.

Works great. Holds big files because it's a big drive.

The WD - My Passport 5TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive is one of my wisest purchases yet. It is easy to setup and use. The external drive enables me to backup enormous quantities of files on my other devices by simply dragging and dropping. Further, it eliminates the need for fistfuls of USB thumb drives. This device is an excellent value!

Perfect for me needs. Easy to use and to sync with my computer

Pretty small and really good for carrying though if you plan on using it for a PS4-5 I'd suggest not moving them too much. I use it for carrying around so I have to use the original plastic container as a case for it.

So far i must say this has been a big upgrade for my external storage i always look for deals yet it seems best buy always has the best one no matter the time of year thank you to everyone at bestbuy and i am so thankful for your geek squad members as well

I do a lot of editing, so I need a vast amount of storage. This 5TB got the job done for my latest project. Plenty of extra room left over for the next edit down the road. My only complaint is that it does see a noticeable slowdown when half of its storage was used. However, since its not an SSD that's to be expected. For the price, definitely worth the buy.
