Excellent external hard drive. This replaced an old drive that I used of backup and it has exceeded my expectations. It backs up all my files in a tenth of the time.

I use this hard drive on travel with my laptop for music production. It has been awesome for quick boot-up time and can save files quickly for future retrieval.

Can hold far more than one needs but setting up has not been easy. The WD website isn't the most helpful and I'm not sure how often to transfer etc. Some basic instructions would have been the cats pajamas.

I'm happy with this purchase. I was surprised to find it in two aisles of the store with slightly different prices. I did not try the backup software provided.

It works as expected. The software it comes with is probably usefull in a mirror backup of your drive I just use it to back up certain files. Worked good for that.

I got this as an expansion for a new laptop that has a small, solid state drive. The drive is quite small in size but big in capacity. There are larger drives, but 1 TB was plenty for my purposes, and has a fast, USB 3 connection. The price was right, too!

Good, but it takes a bit to set up for Apple and PCs

I have compared this portable hard drive on many websites and the reviews. Bestbuy seems to have the lowest pruce, plus, their quality is always truatable.

I have literally dozens of these. My employees use them when working remotely from our office. They perform quickly and flawlessly. Not much more to be said.

The WD 1GB hard drive works great. It transfers files super fast using USB 3.0 ports. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to backup their files.

It does exactly what it's supposed to do and it works for my Xbox one the only thing is that there is a light blinking always but other than it it's awesome

Nice upload/download speeds. Only complaints are the cord is a little short and the build quality doesn't seem as good compared to the one I got 3 years ago. My previous Passport was a heavy all metal case, where this one seems to be hard plastic.

My husband wanted this for his class. He uses it daily and it allows him to work on things at home, work and school. He just plugs it in and is ready to go.

It is a good product, excellent to back up your information, especially using a password to keep your information protected, but .......... if you put a password on a computer with windows you will not be able to open it on a computer With linux :(

was a gift for my 11 year old brother He enjoys playing with his friends And by himself using AI mode which is very cool ! Great gift to play indoors

I've had a few portable HD fail over the years (I travel a lot). So far, this one seems relatively well built. The USB micro-B superspeed connection is snug, which is good as that is a place that has caused problems on some other portable HD for me.

The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is that it didn't give me the option to format it at the beginning. I put a bunch of stuff on it only to later find out I cannot copy things off of my hard drive that is formatted to my apple computer.

This is a very good product! Helpful I May say, makes me able to watch movies without using internet because we stored all Our movies there!!!Love it!

Best way to store all your photos just in case your computer crashes. I used it to transfer files from an old computer to a new one and it worked fine.

Works great with X Box One. Just formatted and transferred. WD is more reliable than Seagate. It was also on a nice sale that I couldn't pass up on.
