Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this device not even a month ago, and now, it's acting up. It does not show on the file explorer. When I went back to Best Buy to get it replace they said if its over 15 days they won't replace it. Now, I am stuck with a device that won't properly work, and my files are gone. :(

a great product and is something that helps with the new computer

We had to return this because it was not compatible with the Playstation it was purchased for.

It took over 3 days for my system to be backed up and then I do not even know if it is backed up

I use these drives a lot and with a purchase of 12 of them, two were DOA right out of the box.

Picked on a recommendation, works great, little use so far

Had this for about 4 days when it fell from my couch to the floor and wouldnt work again

not what daughter expected it to be & a extra thing to carry around to get lost or broken

This Western Digital Easystore 1TB USB 3.0 External Portable Hard Drive is the best hard drive for file backups, photos, music, etc, very reliable, Lots of storage, I strongly recommend this Hard Drive.

it does job, but never buy it to write big files. 5400 rpm is very slow. returned it.

Used one my whole life....it broke so had to get one .... there was only 1 style available so this was it.....I guess they are out of style The buttons on it are rediculously small, it is hard to press just one Instructions are not clear and do not work as stated I would have returned it if I lived closer

Haven't figured out how to use it yet. Not much obvious help at this point.

I already had a 1TB my Passport Ultra I bout about 1.5 years ago and I was looking for a second backup drive to keep off site at work. I decided to get the same thing because this drive is easy to use, it had hardware encryption and it is USB 3. I had an older USB 2 hard drive and this drive is much faster. The software that it comes is easy to use and is well designed.

I have it but I have never use it it's still on my kitchen corner.

Backed up several times. Including just before I took my laptop in to be fixed. When the Geeksquad tried to get info from the drive they couldn't find it. It took them 2 full days to get most of the info. Some was lost. The fact the drive was 3 months old didn't help the situation.

Hate it...you have to upload all these crazy things in your computer that takes up soooo much memory and then after you constantly have to keep updating and there's constant reminders etc. so much hassle for something that should just work as a large portable hard drive.

If you are considering investing in portable storage I'd recommend SDD. Although the 1 TB is appealing it started to slow down at 1/4 of it's capacity. Not only that, HD's are now becoming obsolete.

Not as represented by the salesperson. Much more complicated to use and didn't meet my application at all. Not very Mac friendly. It's a 2 hour drive to the nearest Best Buy so I will probably just racking up as a loss.

Bought this and tried to set it up for a Mac and had numerous issues. After trouble shooting a bit, I just returned it and got a Seagate. The Seagate was no problem whatsoever to set up and has worked great since.

There is so much to love about this hard drive. First, it has a huge capacity. When I think about the drives I've had over the years, it floors me that I can carry 2TB in the palm of my hand. This is slightly larger than a deck of cards and comes with the USB cable.
