  1. Barnes

    Works as it should…speed is what can be expected for an HDD

  2. DCnoAC

    I received an external hard drive which just happens to be what I ordered. How convenient! Sure enough, plug it in an it works just the way you would expect of a hard drive.

  3. WilliamR

    This portable hard drive is working perfectly. I had no problem transferring my data to it as it was quick and efficient. I do a lot of professional writing and the 4TB is ideal for keeping all my information organized and accessible. I highly recommend this WD 4TB Portable Hard Drive. Also the size and weight are excellent.

  4. WalterA

    Very nice machine and the price is good. I partitioned it and it very nice.

  5. VickyC

    Holds lots of pics and takes up little space. Great to take on vacation.

  6. AlwaysOn

    Software was easy to install and it was just click and drag. Easy as pie.

  7. thefunion

    Works great with my Mac Mini M1. I use it as a backup but I could also see using it as an extra attached hard drive. The USB A to USB C dongle is a nice touch as well.

  8. KonaBlue

    Hard Drive was easy to install with my Mac. Using for back up on certain Folder Items. Also comes with security that works well with my Mac Computers.

  9. ChadC

    Just stopped working out of the blue. Won’t mount or power on. So now all my files and work are completely gone. Do not waste your money unless you don’t care about your files.

  10. Lizbeth

    This product has saved me so much space on my phone and computer.

  11. ChrisjH

    Excellent use between ipad pro 12.9 inch and a Lenovo laptop. Need to download special driver for P.C to play nice. Plugs and plays directly into Ipad though with no extra download.

  12. Pleased

    It is a good replacement for my back up that died.

  13. jumps

    Easy to set up. Reasonable price. In stock. Small size.

  14. Daniel

    Good quality, user-friendly and Mac Book Pro compatible.

  15. JPrice455

    Apple Time Machine integration was Flawless! You can choose houlry, daily wedlly etc. Wieks very nocdly in the background. Zeto errors so far! Highest raying.

  16. Cityboy

    Works great! Need the extra storage for photography. Especially shooting images in raw. The space fills up quickly!

  17. Justme

    Wanted to take my pictures off my phone to upgrade and this is what I used.

  18. CathyB

    This external hard drive was easy to set up and use. Great product.

  19. GirlMom

    I love the amount of space this hard drive has. It is nice and compact as well.

  20. DavidW

    Great little drive – very portable and holds as much info as most users will need

  21. Ebham

    This drive is easy to setup and runs at a decent speed.

  22. AntaresPortfolioBookArts

    It’s good – It serves me well – Anything else to add is beyond my knowledge.

  23. ShannyS

    Just get a Lacie hard drive this was too confusing to set up

  24. jabs

    I wasn’t compatible to my Mac. I live out of town and by the time I got back to the store, the warranty was gone.

  25. Rachel

    So glad I didn’t have to format this hard drive for my Mac, it’s easy to use and the password feature is a major bonus.

  26. JenG

    Performance is advertised. No issues. Primary backup for all my computer files.#1

  27. Homehomebody

    Great storage. Frees up a lot of space which is needed on a MacBook Air.

  28. DontienS

    easy to set up – happy with the price and the amount of storage

  29. TimM

    Works fine for the back up I need. Relable, compact.

  30. Carla

    I bought this to upgrade an older HD I have. 4TB is a great amount for me to back up my files. It’s portable. The cord comes with a tiny, lovely USB C adapter, so I don’t have to worry about carrying a dongle. I bought this in April 2022 and so far haven’t had any issues. My only worry is that with time, this hard drive may stop working compared to an SSD (but those are also more expensive). Only time will tell.

  31. WilliamS

    Bought as a backup for a new iMac. Setup was a breeze. My Mac prompted me to reformat the drive and then started running a Time Machine backup. Compact and silent.

  32. GeraldS

    I always relied on these products. Very good to have in case any of my important files were lost.

  33. ChrisJ

    Love this! Just what I needed and so far so good. Thanks to all who wrote reviews to help with my decision.

  34. estherellyn

    Overall works for what I need it to! Mass photo back-up and storage.

  35. Rell

    Easy to set up, and definitely a bang for your buck!

  36. LisaW

    I love this product. I need to store offline so things for business. I worked perfectly.

  37. purplepebble

    It is very lightweight and is good value for money.

  38. GlenS

    This seems to be doing its job. It’s really too early to tell otherwise. So, no complaints. It’s fine.

  39. Misty

    Bought as a gift for several of my children. So far they seem to be working for them as they wanted. They were easy to set up and start using.

  40. ChampaignLife

    Compact external hard drive for those who want to offload files from your computer without using Cloud data

  41. RedRiderRanch

    Perfect size for the external Time Machine backups I do for my iMac on a regular schedule. My previous space got used up. Easy to add to additional devices I may choose to upload files or photo files to. Great price too – just when I needed it. Watch for sales…

  42. JoshC

    Great product. Very easy to store! Very simple to use!

  43. Drausius

    Very fast and easy to use. Just plug it in and it starts working.

  44. RichardK

    Good company for my Apple Mac, easy to use just plug and go

  45. Dean

    From the minute I connected it to my MacBook Pro, it worked well with the Time Machine. It was almost effortless to transfer the contents of my older MacBook Pro to my new one!

  46. LukeD

    Package was “lost” by Best Buy’s shipping (OnTrac) and is STILL in limbo. I have contacted customer service multiple times for cancel and refund, they say okay we’ll initiate that – and they still give me the runaround – it’s in process. etc. Never again!!!

  47. Beavs

    Perfect size for home office and personal use. Fast response time.

  48. WilliamM

    Compact, light, runs very cool, silent, has fast transfer rates with USB 3.0 and worked out of the box for my Mac Book Pro. A perfectly portable drive – I use one for transferring videos to others I work with, and another as a Time Machine drive. Can’t go wrong with this baby!

  49. WilliamZ

    Have not got it to work yet!
    Why can’t you make things that are easy to use for non technical people

  50. Chris

    Fast, can back up my Mac Book Pro in about 10 mins. Small easy to store or take with you
