"This product was very easy to install and and worked for what I needed right out of the box with no additional software required"

Very easy to set up and install everything was pretty much Plug and Play

I used this drive in my NVR and it works great and is very reliable. The Geek Squad tech helped me select this drive.

I’ve always used Western Digital hard drives for my clients who look for a more affordable option and always pick them up at Best Buy because I get the product locally and at a great price. No issues when stress testing.

I've been using WD hard drives as storage drives for a long and haven't had any issues as sending it for warranty yet. There's a reason why I keep buying it when I need additional storage especially when "The Price Is Right."

Very easy to set up and great speed an gives me more capacity.

I am never going to quite understand on why hard drives have such a large amount of unseen data. for example on this 2tb drive i get 1.7 something but its not a huge problem for me its just crazy how the bigger the hard drive the less they care how much data you get. The hard drive is cheap nice and ready to go out the box, cant complain!!

Hard drive works great! easy to install and format!

Using a small SSD as the main drive in your PC for the OS, while using a HDD like this 2TB WD drive for storing programs and data works well. The computer gets a speed boost by having the OS on the SSD, while the large size of the HDD gives plenty of room to store apps and files.

Excellent device, excellent price. Did need SATA cable that was not included, but do not recall whether that was stated on the device spec. Installation took only a few minutes and curb side pickup made purchase easy. Am quite pleased and satisfied.

Easy to install, OS loads even faster than before.

i got this to replace a older WD blue that started to fail out after around 6 years of use this drive is better as its nto as old and this does have a bigger cache compared to the wd blue that it replaced which only had 64mb of cache

This drive was needed for a computer upgrade and worked very well. I found it met my needs very well and used it until other parts of the computer failed. The drive is now awaiting installation in another case.

I was recently in need of replacing a failing hard drive in my Mac Pro Desktop circa 2008. I chose the WD Mainstream 2TB hard drive and so far it 's proven to be a very capable replacement. The cost was reasonable and the performance to date is just what I needed.

works well and easy to install and format in the system

I've always had good luck with Western Digital drives, I hope this drive will be no exception - and I trust it will. I am using this drive as a daily backup for my operating system and files, and it's performing well. Highly recommended!

Works Perfectly as expected! We use these a lot and they always seem to work right out of the box. Would recommend.

Love this item, great price. Easy to install. Works great.

Was working to up date and back up my computer (Still running Windows XP). Long story short I used my external WD drive to save my data and installed a 2TB WD drive. both worked well. Though I was unable to Image my drive yet I am confident that the support is readily available from Western Digital Support.

Replacing hard drives sucks, period, but it isn't TOO difficult and this one worked out well. No issues -- knock on wood -- so far with the performance of this drive.
