Good Performance at a Good Price

Simple, good price, solid performance. Note: If you want maximum storage on a Windows PC, reformat it to NTFS. I had an old 4TB WD external drive, formatted NTFS, about 3 TB on it. When I picked this new one up the old drive's data wouldn't transfer - turns out it was related to the exFAT cluster size, it couldn't handle a bunch of relatively small files, ate up too much space. (Reformat to NTFS worked fine) NOTE2: This drive doesn't come with the old WD wdstor app (which worked quite well). If you would like equivalent functionality check out the robocopy command available in Powershell. It's very easy to craft a small script with a couple of robocopy commands, then have Windows run it as a task (e.g., at 2am each night, or once a week, or...) (neither of the above two Notes are negatives to me)

fast and big

Small, fast, high storage capacity for pictures and important videos. We store our vacation videos and pictures on this device. it's a lot easier and cheaper to back up pictures and videos then it is to recreate them. It connects via USB C connector and transfers data really fast. You can protect the data on the drive using a password and the hard drive is encrypted using hardware based encryption which speeds it up.

Small and fast

I was somewhat surprised that this portable drive was available at Walmart at the cheapest price. I already had a WD 2 TB drive, but I needed more space for video and picture backups. I opted for the slightly older model of the WD 4 TB, being a few bucks cheaper, and I didn't need all the newer encryption features. Installation could not be easier. Just plug it in and wait a few seconds, a you've got a whole new HDD drive. I use it as a backup for my home PC. I get transfer rates from 50 to 80 MB/sec (much faster than flash thumb drives). The device is small enough (about 4 x 5 x 0.75 inch) to stick in a drawer or safety deposit box for safekeeping.
