  • Exceptional product, but it has 1.8 TB instead of 2 TB due to unexplained reasons
Color: Cobalt Capacity: 2TB Pattern: Storage
Absolutely phenomenal product, it came in it’s box properly packaged, it’s lightweight and works perfectly for my Xbox One. Whether you’re buying this to increase storage on a gaming console or store data for traveling, I would highly recommend this product. It’s slim and small enough to fit in my small compartments of my backpack. The ONLY problem I have with this product, and it’s minute enough to not warrant a 4-star, is that while it’s advertised as 2 TB of storage, in reality it’s only 1.8 TB of storage. I don't quite understand the specifics of why it has 200 GB less than advertised, but I can imagine during the converting/formatting of the product during manufacturing has caused it to no longer “see” where the 200 GB has gone. I’m sure I could use their tech support to have fixed this issue, however, I've committed it and converted it to the Xbox One’s game storage and do not feel that tech support would be able to fix this issue without suggesting I format the SSD and lose about 1.2 TB of games. ... show more

  • Really Compact, Lightweight, Fast, Functional!
Color: Cobalt Capacity: 500GB Pattern: Storage
The title sums it up perfectly. You can fit it into just about any pocket you have! Transfer speeds are great and it's never failed me in the few months I've owned it thus far. I can't comment on the service as it has always functioned flawlessly and I've never had to contact them. For the speed size and efficientcy its perfect for the money. Downfall is it's a little small but I mean that's in the description 500g for a great price. ... show more

  • Durable and sturdy and last years.
Color: Cobalt Capacity: 500GB Pattern: Storage
I have been using my portable WD ssd for over 4 years. No issues at all. No heat issues like some other portable ssd drives. So far so very good. I'm very happy. The cable is very short; so you may need to get a usb hub if you're taking with you to work or at other venues. I bought a second one as I am very happy with this product. If you want a longer cable, then look at a Samsung portable ssd. ... show more

  • Does what an external hard drive should do, just a little slow
Color: Cobalt Capacity: 500GB Pattern: Storage
Bought this as a physical file backup. I already put my files almost exclusively on cloud storage, but I think it's good practice to back your files up via both cloud and external hard drive/flash drive. Although this is an SSD, it seems to perform a bit slower than expected. However, I don't have that many important files to backup (probably around 30 GB), so the slower speed hasn't been much of a hindrance so far. The included cable is nice and unobtrusive, although if you need to connect via USB-C or another head, you will need to get a separate adapter. The drive itself is also incredibly light, and the entire casing is plastic. The actual available drive space was under 500 GB, however, so if you actually need 500 GB of space, go for a larger drive. ... show more

  • If it isn't showing up...
Color: Cobalt Capacity: 500GB Pattern: Storage
I had a good experience with these but at first it was very frustrating. I don't know if it's WD fault, but basically when they came there was no drive letter assigned to them so they didn't show up in the file explorer. But I found a solution so I thought I'd put it out there. Open Control Pannel, type in Disk Management, right click on the drive with no letter, and choose to assign it. You may also want to format it to NFTS instead of exFAT so you can compress files and because it's basically an upgrade. Also, if your files aren't copying, it might be just one corrupted file and the others are okay, so instead of copying the whole folder, copy sub-folders a few at a time so you can narrow down where the problem is and move it away or delete it. There's been some hiccups, but once I figured out what was going on, these turned out to be really nice, really fast little hard drives. ... show more

  • If you've never owned a solid-state computer drive, get ready for a treat!
Color: Cobalt Capacity: 500GB Pattern: Storage
As my very first SSD (solid-state drive) I purchased this drive to achieve a faster boot-up sequence, and I was not disappointed! At a steady speed of about 30 MB/Second, my computer starts up almost as fast as an electric car. This drive is tiny, lightweight, silent, and cool-running. It carries its own self-storing USB cable which cannot be detached from the unit, so it cannot be lost or left at home. At 500GB, there's plenty of space for a system drive, and as a side-benefit, an SSD is practically shock-proof. My next one will be 2TB, but those are a bit pricey compared to a standard spinning hard drive. ... show more

  • So far so good
Color: Cobalt Capacity: 2TB Pattern: Storage
I bought this because my cloud account was being disabled and I needed a reliable place to store my data (1.5TB worth of data). Love the SSD because there is no disk (I have lost data due to discs malfunctioning in the past). Now I'm not afraid of traveling with a hard drive anymore because this guy keeps all my worries away. Lightweight and the cord folds right into so I don't have to worry about that being damaged. Great tool for anyone looking for a place to back up data/photos and needs to travel quite often. Durable & reliable. ... show more
