Customer Ratings & Reviews

Nice little profile and lots of space. Using for backups and it is reliable.

So far so good. Using this as a media streamer. As a former music/ tour photographer and working over 23 yrs as a photographer in general I have a lot of photos, music and videos I’ve collected over the years. Hold everything fine. Works great with Plex.

Lasts forever, reliable and doesn't take up much space in my bag!

Anyone who works with a mobile device should have one of these to use as a back up, especially anyone who travels for work like I do. I love the color, it's stylish, sturdy and it's small enough so it doesn't take up too much space in my purse or my bag.

Perfect external for what I needed. Since it's usb-c, it runs much faster for back ups or large transfers.

Purchased to add storage to my PS5, and my PS4 games run off it perfectly. Setup was painless, and it performs precisely as advertised.

You never think you will need 4TB, until your server crashes and your cloud backup is corrupted, and... We grabbed this as a redundant backup for our secondary office server and it updates daily. The speed and ease of use are great. WD products and pricing are fantastic.

Very good and useful product, budget friendly and easy to use

I've copies over thousands of photos from my laptops and still have lots of space. It was easy to connect and begin using. I've had several Western Digital External hard drives and they have worked well. I'm not sure how I was supposed to be able to use encryption on this one.

Nice hard drive. I haven't had this one very long, but it works well. I don't use the WD software at all, so I'm no help in commenting on that part of the product. A solid state drive is certainly better, but they're pricey at this point, so this one is perfect for my needs.

Purchase one every year for my business. Easy to use, holds a ton of documents, and reasonably priced.

It's fast, has handy apps, extremely portable, huge at 4TB and seems reliable so far. Western Digital - accept no substitutes! Been using their products for over 20 years (yeah, I'm older), and know what works and what doesn't. Buy this if you something with these specs!

Very high quality product. I purchased this one to work from and wanted something durable, high speed and light so it is easy to carry. So far, it has met all expectations. Great product and would recommend.

This is my 'go-to' portable external storage drive. It has plenty of space for my projects which contain large graphics files. It just works!

Everything as advertised, easy setup, small footprint, pretty quick transfer rate. With a sale price, took some of the sting out of having to replace two older drives that were no longer safe if connected to the internet.

I have 8 of these and use them for storage and backup. Dating back 8 or 9 years, never had a failure or problem from any of them. Much better than other brands.

Great drive. Capacity is large enough. Price ratio vs. capacity made it easy decision. I use it for backup of all of my work files history (over 25 years worth of MS Office and CAD files). Irreplaceable.

Lightweight pocket size harddrive. Tons of storage- I have hundreds of high quality clips saved and more

This portable hard drive is easy to use and really easy to carry. You could use it on a windows or Apple computer. I own a Apple MacBook Pro and it was easy to install the software to use it. It’s great to keep your files safe and secure.

4TB for this price is pretty great. It easily connects to other computers, including both PC and Mac, and even phones if you have the right adapter. Only thing I would complain about is that after connecting to a Mac and going to a PC, the drive has to fix itself, only takes a minute but its still a small problem. I have been through one already since the hard drive just stop working, there was a big scratch noise coming from it and I lost everything. Just make sure to be careful around it, throwing it in a backpack and carrying it around all day might be an issue, just be careful.
