    Wanted to get a backup drive that would hold several systems. The 8TB seemed to be appropriate for the amount of data I needed for now, Not only that, it was on sale. So far, so good.

    Easy to use. The instruction booklet could have provided more information as it pertains to all the plug adaptors.

    I needed a backup drive for photos and video from my camera. Works perfectly for that task, although I didn't realize that I'd quickly run out of space even for an 8TB drive. Overall, I'm very happy with it. Since it's a mechanical drive, it can be a little noisy at times.

    Great for storing my photos. When you shot raw you use up a lot of storage space. For the price you can't beat this hard drive.

    Plugged it into my Mac and PC it works great. I formatted to fat32. I can transfer my files back-and-forth between both of my computers with ease and have plenty of space for storage. I had a older model that still works and is running out of space so I Needed a new one.

    Excellent value and works wonderfully. Was easy to re-program for Mac. Have had zero issues with it so far. Really like the password protect feature. I believe I bought this on sale, but after looking at 6 different models of an 8 TB external hard drive and reading all of the reviews, this one came out on top.

    I save a lot of raw files for bird photography so I needed the disk space so I got this external hard drive for that purpose. It is easy to install and just simply plug and play. It is a bit big though but for the capacity of 8 TB, that should be okay.

    This drive works as needed. Just plug and play. It requires power cord because of the size, but the size is what I needed for backup.
