Redundancy is the safest bet kids ;) I plugged this in , changed the drive lettering and made a copy, it went very quickly ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ work great *by on Reviewed in the United States September 16, 2024* work great ### ⭐⭐ WD 4TB HDD Review *by on Reviewed in the United States February 4, 2024* I didn't realize this unit was being shipped from the UK. It took about an extra week to arrive, and when it did, I found out it did not have power adaptors to fit into electrical sockets that United States uses. Luckily, I had the 12V power cord from my old WD unit and it worked. I feel there should be more plain wording in the ad as to where this unit is shipped from. ## Frequently Bought Together - WD 4TB My Book Desktop HDD USB 3.0 with Software for Device Management, Backup and Password Protection Works with PC and Mac - Seagate Portable 2TB External Hard Drive HDD — USB 3.0 for PC, Mac, PlayStation, & Xbox -1-Year Rescue Service (STGX2000400) - WD 5TB My Passport, Portable External Hard Drive, Black, backup software with defense against ransomware, and password protection, USB 3.1/USB 3.0 compatible - WDBPKJ0050BBK-WESN --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/357037081-wd-4tb-my-book-desktop-hdd-usb-3-0-software](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/357037081-wd-4tb-my-book-desktop-hdd-usb-3-0-software) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-08-30*
