Customer Ratings & Reviews

Product worked as expected after formatting. It was a replacement for one that seemed near its end of life in a desk top comoputer. Most electronic items work good or not at all. No one at the BB store told me that hard drives now arrive unformatted. It cost me an extra trip to the store for the Geek Squad to format it. That is why I gave 4* and not 5* rating.

Good price and performs as expected. Purchased to replace NAS drives for storage.

Excellent product used to replace a Samsung 2 T 3.5 Hard drive that failed right out of the box. This hard drive was so simple to install and use for major storage of audio and video files. Great for using as a media center / streamer with android tablets and phones. norm883

My friend PC only came with 128 GB of space so this was a great option if you're not going to play games that consume lots of ram and space. This is mostly for archives and video storage.

This by far was and is one of the best purchases I've made. I am able to back up my system, music, and photographs. I implore all who read this to do so so you will not lose and important information stored in your system.

Have two of these drives installed on my PC for long-term data storage. No issues with installation, should provide peace of mind for many years.

Installed 2 of these in a pc being converted into a Plex home server. Work as needed so far without the added cost of "NAS" drives. Too early to tell if they suffer from a shorter lifespan

I bought this hard drive for more storage because I have had few problems with Western Digital drives. It is now installed, partitioned and working fine in my system. Would prefer a 7200 RPM drive but decided to use this drive for Movies and backup and wanted a slower drive that may have more life with fewer problems at the end of the drives lifespan.

This is the only hard drive I use.. does what it needs to do.

I needed to upgrade the storage capacity of one of my PC's hard drives. Highly reviewed by other purchasers, it was a natural to choose the Western Digital 2TB Sata drive, increasing my storage capacity four-fold!

worked prefect for our son in law computer did the job it was supposed to

I messed up buying this hard drive. Should have researched it more and seen that the RPM is only 5800. Not a deal breaker and not worth my time to trade it back in since I don't think Best Buy carries any 7200RPM 2 TB hard drives. Works fine for what I am using it for and going strong for a month since I got it. NOTE: Does *NOT* come with a SATA cable!

Wouldn't use for boot drive but makes a great storage drive for those large files you dont always need.

Great HD for the money, Western digital has always come through with great products. I've only had one issue with WD and they made it right with now issues or delays (not this product).

Drive performs surprisingly well for a <7200 rpm drive, netting about 130 megabytes/sec sequential transfer rate. Western Digital drives have always been my "go to" drives. One last caution; be careful when you buy. I thought I was getting a WD Blue drive because of the pretty blue box, but I missed the small green badge on the front of the box. Performance is pretty good nonetheless.

I just had the help in building my first rig and only went with the finest. While I could have went with something much cheaper I figured if I was going to go all out might as well do it correctly and I’m really happy with the outcome!

The 2TB drive I purchased was easy to install as a plug and play device . it works perfectly with my current Windows 10 machine. I wold recommend this drive for anyone needing to upgrade their drives.

The Geek Squad pros installed this hard drive when my previous drive crashed. It works great and, I couldn't be more pleased. Thanks.

Not the fastest drive out there but from my experience, the WD drives have outlived virtually every Seagate I own. GO with the black series for performance, purple for AV use or RED if you plan to put them in a NAS/RAID environment.

Lightning fast and excellent memory space... great replacement for my older hard drive
