4 TB Elements Portable External Hard Drive - USB 3.0, Black, USB 3.0, Plug-and-Play, formatted for Windows, Schwarz

Great hard drive, loads of storage space and a nice compact size. I got one second hand, expecting some sort of visual imperfection or damage, but the only thing I could see was a slightly battered box. Zero issues with performance, and files move so fast compared to my old hard drive. Great!

Quietly Does Its Job Like a Digital Hero This WD 2TB Elements hard drive is not flashy. It doesn’t light up, beep, or demand attention. It simply shows up, holds all your stuff, and asks for nothing in return—and honestly, that’s the kind of energy I need in my life. Setup was plug-and-play easy. I plugged it in, my computer immediately recognized it, and suddenly all my photos, videos, work files, and “I’ll organize this later” folders had a safe place to live. Transfer speeds over USB 3.0 are fast, it runs quietly, and it’s small enough to toss into a bag without feeling like I’m carrying a brick. It’s been reliable, stays cool, and hasn’t given me a single scare—which is exactly what you want from something holding 2TB of your digital existence. No drama. No nonsense. Just storage doing storage things very well. If you need extra space and peace of mind, this drive delivers.

This WD external hard drive is small, lightweight and very easy to use. It works straight out of the box with plug and play on Windows, and it only takes a quick reformat to use with Mac. The 1TB storage is plenty for photos, videos, documents and backups. Transfer speeds are fast with USB 3.0, and files copy smoothly without any issues. It feels well made and reliable, and it fits easily in a pocket or bag for travel. Overall, this is a great option if you want simple, portable and dependable storage at a very reasonable price. I would definitely recommend it.

5TB of storage at this price was a no brainer. Just as an additional backup for my photos. I'm obviously using backbkaze too but this harddrive is backed up and kept off site. The quality is good. It's compact and offers good transfer speeds. Very pleased with my bargain of the month.

Great little hard drive. Comes formatted to NTFS. I formatted mine to exFAT. Now works with Windows, Mac, Android and iOS.

Fairly priced second hand 2TB external hard drive, Easy to nstall and to use. Compatability is great operated with no issues, great size and fit.

Very compact and easy to use at a very competitive price for 2TB. I bought this specifically to take my PS4 games off the internal PS5 SSD but I didn't want to get a 'game drive' specific one as I would have more freedom if I wanted to partition it and backup some PC files as well. The setup couldn't have been easier, I took it out of the box, plugged it in and the PS5 recognised it instantly. I had to format the drive before I could use it which I thought might take a few minutes at most but only took 5 seconds, then I selected around 360GB of PS4 games/apps and started the transfer. After the format I had 1.8TB free which is more than enough and with all drives they need space for their base operating software which is usually a small fraction off the stated capacity, a lot of people clearly don't understand this from some of the reviews complaining they got less capacity than they purchased -_- The transfer was speed really good for a physical drive, better than I was expecting, it took just over an hour for it to finish moving the whole 350+GB to the external drive. My PS5 told me once that the drive wasn't removed properly after powering on after being in rest mode, I didn't remove the drive at all so I'm not sure why it said that. This error message has only come up once and happened the first time the console had been in rest mode with the new drive connected. The console has been in rest mode and turned off multiple times after this message and hasn't given me the error since so it may just be a one time thing. I'll update this review if I come across any issues. Loading PS4 games from the External as opposed to launching them from the internal SSD was a little bit slower. All times below were timed from the point of clicking resume on my game file to actually getting into the game. - Resident Evil 7 took 77sec to load which I'd played the day before on the PS5 SSD which probably took under 30 seconds. In-game the performance was perfect, no frame drop, no noticeable delay on textures rendering in. - Horizon Zero Dawn took 30-40sec which was actually quicker than RE7 despite being a huge open world game, the in-game performance was perfect too even with the 60FPS patch. - God of War took 29 seconds to load into the game. - Batman Arkham Knight took just 32 seconds to load my save and get into the game. - Mortal Shell took just 20 seconds to load into the game. - Call of Duty Modern Warfare took 56 seconds to load into the game from chapter selection.

This has to be the toughest and strongest of hard disk drives, I’ve had no data loss, no noise problems and no serious compatibility issues, to be honest these aren’t problems I knew it could have until reading the amazon review prompts, I guess it means I either won the hdd lottery or it means that you need to get one of these

I recently purchased the WD 4TB Elements Portable USB 3.0 High Capacity Hard Drive and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. The drive is compact and easy to use - just plug it into my computer's USB port and I'm good to go. The 4TB of storage is more than enough for my needs, and the transfer speeds are reasonable for a standard 5400rpm HDD.. One thing that initially concerned me was the drive's tendency to get hot during use. However, I have used it extensively over the past few weeks and have not experienced any issues with overheating. In terms of value, I believe the WD 4TB Elements Portable USB 3.0 High Capacity Hard Drive offers excellent value for the price and the high capacity and decent transfer speeds make it well worth the investment. If you need a lot of storage on the go and are looking for a reliable and high-performance option, I highly recommend the WD 4TB Elements Portable USB 3.0 High Capacity Hard Drive.

Produto excelente, original e funcionando perfeitamente

WDのポータブルHDDは、会社と自宅で合わせて5台ほど使用していますが、これまで一度もトラブルが発生したことはありません。認識しなくなったこともなく、安定して使えているため、個人的にはとても信頼している製品です。 価格が手頃でコストパフォーマンスが良い点に加え、本体がコンパクトで場所を取らないのも気に入っています。持ち運びや設置のしやすさは日常使いにおいて重要ですが、その点でも不満はありません。 「普通に、当たり前に使え続ける」――それが一番難しくて、一番価値がある。そう感じさせてくれるHDDです。今後も同シリーズを選ぶと思います。

This is a great hard drive. I previously had a 1 TB hard drive of WD and that worked really fine. That is why I decided to go for a 2TB hard drive of WD. Though, Seagate hard drives are much better than WD because they are thinner and they sustain for a long time like WD. I purchased it @Rs. 5599. Pros- 1. WD is a very reliable name in the field of hard drives. So it is reliable. 2. 2-year warranty. 3. small in size. 4. Reading speed is amazing. I got around 150 MBps/ 1.2 Mbps while reading. (Data was a movie and USB port was USB 3.0) 5. Writing speed is also great. I got around 55 MBps/ 440 Mbps while writing on the hard drive. (Data was a movie and USB port was USB 3.0) 6. The speed of reading and writing on USB 2.0 ports is also great. 7. USB 3.0 cable is already included in the package. So you don't need to purchase a USB 3.0 cable separately. 8. The length of the cable is enough for normal usage. 9. The product is original. So you can get is registered on WD website. You will also get your warranty from there. 10. Cheaper than Seagate models. (in general) Cons- 1. If you are in need of a long USB 3.0 cable then you will be disappointed. The length of the cable is just enough for normal usage. 2. The hard drive is somewhat thick. You will get a Seagate hard drive of the same capacity to be slimmer. Final comment- If the price is not a big issue for you and you want a slimmer hard drive then go for Seagate hard drive. Else this is certainly one of the best choices.

Works well
