So far no problems! I love WD products, they always work great for my needs.

does not work!

Looks like it is a 5tb usb hard drice. it is super cheap feeling but will get the job done.

I had my WD Elements 5TB EHD for almost 2 years and no issues. Use it to install all my PS4 and other non PS5 games. I only have 500GB of space left and it has been working perfectly since day 1. PS5 automatically reformats it.

Lots of storage to hold everything I want to keep without loosing

Good hard drive, price is good. Don’t install the software or make an account if you have a Mac. The software has trouble seeing the drive and will also scan other connected drives. Just reformat the drive. _x000D_

Dimensions are nice and small and you don’t need a separate power source.

I received the disk drive and started using it as normal. I attached it to the notebook as before and the notebook did not recognize it. I contacted support because the tools were useless. The helpdesk wasn't much better, they did say I had to reformat it. I did using a complete format, not the quick. The drive found bad locations and fixed them. I put files on it and did a checkdisk with fix option and it's been great after finding half a dozen bad spots over several days.

I sent a message asking for help. Nothing. Have not been able to use this at all. VERY dissatisfied.

I love the out-of-the-box functionality of WD drives. Unfortunately, their quality leaves a lot to be desired. This is the 3rd drive I've purchased that has stopped functioning less than a year into owning it; and YES, I've tried all the troubleshooting steps. I won't be buying another WD drive.

SMR drive: writing speeds get dramatically slow - with NTFS defrag takes few days (!) I'm using it to backup my NAS to it so the speed is not much of an issue but for the average user it will be a bummer. Cannot recommend.
