Solid external drive. Reliable, overall best price and quality.
In 2025, this still seems to be the best simple external hard drive, at best price. No extra power cord needed. Just plug into laptop/desktop, and store 6TB of data. I have not had major reliability problems, and use these daily for many years. Only issue is if a drive is accidentally knocked off a desktop (dog hits it with tail, etc) they can fail.If you use these to store large (60GB+, etc) computer games from EPIC/Steam stores, sometimes the game stores will lose track of the hard drive. Easy fix is to 1) search in task manager, close all game launchers. 2) unblug external hard drive, 3) reopen games launcher. Hard drive should get recognized again.

The Biggest USB Powered Portable Storage Available
I'm not a Western Digital fan. In the past I've had wrong cables in the box, and their "customer service" didn't care. Despite it being sealed in WD logo shrink wrap, they blamed Amazon. That's crazy. Like Amazon would be swapping cables in a sealed box.Anyway, they are the only ones who carry a 6 Tb storage capacity portable, which is currently the biggest available for a drive that is powered by the USB port. And one of my projects was about to outgrow my Seagate 5 Tb portable. The nice thing is even though they are the only game in town the price is in range with smaller drives. It's very quiet to use. It an easy plug and play drive. I reformatted it as Ex-Fat for cross-platform use. The quality of the case seems an improvement from past drives.

Great For Backing Up Video Footage
We traveled internationally to shoot a project. For portability we used solid state external drives for video storage. We ended up with about 4TB of raw 4K footage. This 6TB external disc drive was ideal for backing up our footage. There was no way we could afford to go back for reshoots. This was a cost-effective way to cover our backsides! The downside is it only has a USB A interface so data transfer is very slow... but reliable.
