    WD 4TB My Book Desktop External Hard Drive - USB 3.0 - WDBBGB0040HBK-NESN

    • Not Enough Space..." which is answer ID 20789
    • Available space is 5.4 TB.I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this to anyone who is looking for 5+ TB of storage, this is an excellent value and reliable product.
    • It seems like the feet are spaced at just the right distance to build up a harmonic vibration
    • My primary purpose in purchase was to have a permanent storage and backup device to free up space on my aging laptop
    • The 4TB hard drive is probably the best, its small light and has pretty decent space with 3.63TB
    • Take it from someone who had terabytes when people still thought gigs were a lot: You can never be too thin, too rich, or have enough disk space
    • I was tired of having to delete my old games to have free space
    • Regardless of what software is used, I love the large space this drive offers for backing up my file system
    • This hard drive has been working great as extra space for my PS4
    • Usable space is 7.28TB.
    • While access to files is OK, trying to determine free space or size of a folder on the drive (right click > Properties) takes literally hours
    • Nice and quiet with enough space to backup my entire computer and then some.
    • Finally decided to reformat the 8TB unit to NTFS since (1) I gained no additional storage space and (2) my PC would not boot with the 8TB drive attached.
    • so if space is a issue for you this is definitely for you.
    • This is completely clunky, adds noise, takes extra space, and wrecks the looks
    • Shows up as 7.35 of usable space after formatted.
    • when I checked available space on the new drive it was much smaller then expected.
    • If this is a frequent, common occurrence, the potential buyer should be told that the object may not do what s/he thinks it will do.
    • It works as it should, reading reviews before you buy Just what I wantedis a good idea.
    • and I'm suspect as to the longevity
    • Very satisfied as always👍🏻
    • Works exactly as it is supposed to.
    • I have this connected to a XPS 8930 which also supports USB c on the mother board
    • Reading speed around 150, noisy and hot(over 62°C).. but work fine
    • Works great & supports USB C
