I'm using this as a backup drive. 4TB is a lot and it's what I need. No idea how durable it will be but WD is a reliable brand and I had drives from them before that never failed me.

I bought this to back up a couple of old computers. Unlike most of of the others I have, this one seems to keep up a reasonable speed throughout the transfer. So many start out fast and slow to a crawl after a few minutes. This one, while not as fast as SSD, hardley slowed down at all. I'm a happy camper.

Excellent portable storage, very easy to use. Fast transfers. Very quiet and light weight. I highly recommend this product. Great value too.

I love this external HD. Does not take up much space. I just wish I could access my files on it when it is connected to my docking station instead I have to have it directly connected to my laptop.

This is the third WD portable drive I've owned and I've never had an issue with any of them. Comes with USB-C port and cable but includes the standard USB 3.1 adapter. Housing seems strong and well designed. Password protection and file management is simple and doesn't require you install any thing on your computer to use. You can install a host of free software tools that allow you to take full advantage of this drive. I just use mine for a media back-up so I don't install anything to keep the process simple and quick. Which is nice due to some competitors require bloat ware just to encrypt or manage their drive.

This 4TB has risen to the occasion of being a drive that I can use as a reliable backup drive. Western Digital (WD) overall has been a reliable brand for me. This case is no different.

These are where I store my phots and not on my hard drive. I have more than one because I always have a backup in case something goes wrong with one. One is none if it breaks down and two is one.

Forget a flash drive, get this bad boy and backup everything!! Works great, I use it to backup iTunes, games, pictures, and videos so I have a security blanket if anything happens. I count on physical storage rather than cloud storage.

I purchased this drive for data storage, I have a WD 6 TB external drive that contained a little over 1 TB of video files collected over the years that I wanted to have a redundant backup of, if or when the external drive crashed, they do not last forever.
I plugged the drive into what I thought was a USB 3.0 port and started the file copy process, file transfer rate was very slow, time to completion was days not hours. I aborted the transfer, plugged the drive into a different USB 3.0 port, started the transfer again, transfer speeds were much faster, it took a couple of hours, not days the second time around.
Point being, if you experience slow data transfer rates, try a different USB 3 port, and make sure it is a USB 3 port. It appears that the initial port I tried was mislabeled, it was a USB 2 port, not 3 hence the days vs. hours.
