A: 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

Excellent and Reliable External HD for PS4
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.
