Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought two of these for my Xbox Series X, and for my Ps5! They both worked great no problems!

My first WD external Hard drive died with a lot of my data on it. This is my first WD purchased since then. So far, it works great, stores a lot of data. Great value.

Easy to use, worth the price and seamless transfers

Great value, especially for 4T of memory. Anyone remember the old-days with disc and CD drives? Very happy with this device!

Work as expected! Confident to store my data long term in this storage.

So far everything has been working well. I haven't had any problems with it.

My husband picked this item up because his computer started getting sluggish. He organized and moved files and claims everything is running smoothly. Great investment.

Great drive, work great with my Macbook Pro. No problems with PS or FCPX.

Very good built. Highly recommend this drive for work or personal storage.

I am really enjoying the experience of using this drive. I like the extra peace of mind that enabling hardware encryption gives. Now I don’t have to worry about losing the drive and some rando gaining access to personal information. I’m sure it’s not proof from a dedicated hacker but should foil any normal person. The transfer speed is good. I’ve got USB3 on my laptop and the drive is USB3. Writing to it I get about 120MB/s which is fine for a spinning disk. I haven’t done any read speed tests but I have not noticed any issues there. Read speed is typically better anyway. For the cost and size this is an excellent purchase.

Came at the perfect time for storing all work, pictures & media

This is my second one. I use them to backup my data. Both of them have very good quality and perform quite well. I was a fun of Seagate, but now WD beats Seagate in all aspects.

I was looking for a single storage device. I have over 55,000 photos and videos on 22 flash drives. Having everything on one device has allowed me to organize folders a lot easier.

Nobody buys an external hard drive for glamour or status points, but the WD works exactly as I expected---perfectly. You can't ask for more than that.

I recently started a movie podcast and this puppy was the best value for the storage to help me keep all my files and episodes backed up and off my actual laptop. Works beautifully.

Works fine. Recognized by Windows 10 PC and laptop immediately.

The drive was an easy plug and play. The PS4 just formatted it the way it needed to be and the games are now all saved on the drive and I was able to free up all the space on the PlayStation

Used this to backup the configuration and data files for an enterprise NVR prior to a OS and software upgrade. Works just like you would expect from a Western Digital product

Using this as external storage for PS5. Had a smaller one that has been hooked up to a PS4 for years with no problems.

Never been let down by a WD drive, and its the same story here. Great price and value. USB 3.0 is all the speed I need and 5TB is plenty of storage for such a portable drive.
