Great backup drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great backup drive. Works great for that purpose but I would recommend their desktop drives for daily use due to fast higher performance. This drive is more for travel and media storage or backups rather than heavy writing.

Decent HD for the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent drive…caught it on sale. Does what it should. If I could suggest an improvement, it would be the drive’s ability to be read by a Samsung TV. Some files appear fine while many others of the same type file don’t show as available. Other drives with the same files on them all play just fine. Not a deal breaker, just my experience. Other than that it’s a good drive so far.

The Greatest for any application!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought two 5TB because my old passport internally broke. I needed an extended storage for my ps4 pro and another for my phone/pc. So long as you format them to exFat I believe you will experience/benefit from it's super fast upload, reading speeds and worry-free plug and play on newer devices. I have stored about 2.5TB of games and they load up and run smoother, heck, even greater than the native drive sony offers inside the Ps4 Pro. Highly recommend this product!

Average size storage.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Better for Laptop backup or mobile photo backup. Currently also offering 500 GB WD cloud storage subscription for 1 year. Also provides recovery software with 1 year license. You need to buy type B to type cable separately if want to use in Mac.

Keeps Documents and Images private and Safe off PC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for a Christmas gift for a friend. I use 5 WD External Hard Drives. I knew this was what would help the friend with work. I was right. She loves it, is able to store all her images separate from her desktop PC. I will be buying another for her and another for me because our work loads are expanding. This is the best way to keep documents and records private and safe.
