I wouldn't recommend either. My WD EasyStore4TB didn't even last a year. It only lasted long enough to make sure I could farm out content on it onto other drives for backups. It got to about 3TB full over the course of 2 days of part-time work and, while plugged into an Amazon USB port splitter for Thunderbolt ports, it just died. No explanation, no ability to recover or erase the disk, just died mid-transfer. In effect, I now own a paper weight that holds 3TB of my media which would cost more to recover than the drive itself. I have drives 15 years old that still run, this one lasted 10 months. Avoid this make, and probably avoid this brand. HDDs are nothing in comparison to SSDs and NVMe drives anyway. You'd be wasting your money on old tech, like I did.
