    I bought this so I could load it up with a bunch of digital media to use with my Samsung Note 8 directly. It works perfectly!!! Make sure you plug it into your phone FIRST before loading it up with media (lesson learned the hard way), so it can format it. After that you can go back and forth between your phone and your computer. It will drain your phone battery faster, but that should be expected. It has my recommendation for those want the convenience of USB-C. It also came with the USB-A adapter.

    Really like the large 4TB size external drive for storing and protecting my important records and family pictures. The WD drive also includes some free excellent software for things like setting up password protection for the drive, etc. Very well made drive and comes with all the necessary information and the cable for getting up and running quickly. It works perfectly in my Windows 10 ASUS computer.
