Good value, working just fine
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I bought this little guy with 2tb (nice) for my computer. My computer is less than a year old, but I forgo more memory in order to afford the other features. I figured getting an external hard drive would suffice. This one has. Been using it for roughly 1 month, and I have easily been able to transfer my game files (Steam/GoG, etc) to it. It cleared up a TON of space for my desktop, and it's working just fine. For the price, well worth it. I'll update this review if any issues come up, so far, none.

Works great After PS5 UPDATE! 4/14/2021
|Posted .I got this after Sony announced the new update for the PS5 console in which we can install our ps4 and PS5 games in an external hard drive. It was on sale for 57 dollars, I would be crazy to miss that deal. Got it today, plugged it in the PS5 and so far everything works greats. I am able to transfer and download PS4 games on the hard drive but for PS5 games I am only able to transfer them to the hard drive after downloading them into the systems internal ssd. This makes sense if you read the Sony article explaining the Update. No issues so far and I am excited to finally be able to expand storage for my PS5.

Excellent and Reliable External HD for PS4
|Posted .Owned for 5 months when reviewed.Excellent I cheaper way to expand your storage for the PlayStation 4. I’m able to store a lot more games without having to delete hard drive space. It’s easy. The PlayStation will do all the work for you. Just plug and play. It’s small, black and hides right on top of the unit. This works great to for storing normal photos. Warning, the PlayStation will delete everything on the external drive if you have something stored on it already. I like Western Digital Brand more than others.

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between the My Passport 2TB USB 3.0 at $79 and the WD - easystore 2TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive - Black which is $129?
Asked by mbranch.
- A:Answer The easystore line is a BestBuy only hard drive with missing features (you cannot set a password or encrypt the drive) and a reduced warranty when compared to the WD MyPassport line. Otherwise it's a WD manufactured hard drive that offers great transfer speeds. Because the easystore has fewer features, it is generally cheaper. In this case, because the MyPassport drive is cheaper, I'd recommend that drive over the easystore. Check this thread https://community.wd.com/t/my-book-passport-vs-easystore/203207/5

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between 3.0 USB and 2.0 USB
Asked by Rogelio.
- A:Answer Transfer rates: USB 2.0 offers transfer rates of 480 Mbps, and USB 3.0 offers transfer rates of 4.8 Gbps — 10 times faster. Addition of another physical bus: The amount of wires was doubled, from 4 to 8. Additional wires required more space in both the cables and connectors, so new types of connectors were designed. Power consumption: USB 2.0 provides up to 500 mA whereas USB 3.0 provides up to 900 mA. The USB 3 devices provide more power when needed and conserve power when the device is connected but idling. More bandwidth: Instead of one-way communication, USB 3.0 uses two unidirectional data paths, one to receive data and the other to transmit while USB 2.0 can only handle only one direction of data at any time. Improved bus utilization: A new feature was added (using packets NRDY and ERDY) to let a device asynchronously notify the host of its readiness.

Q: QuestionI read that the only cable this drive needs/uses is the USB cable. Does that mean that this drive is using the same cable to power the device and transfer data at the same time?
Asked by WhystleStop.
- A:Answer You are correct. The USB cable provides both power and data transfer for this device. No separate power hookup/cable is used or needed.
