Customer Ratings & Reviews

Put 2 of these in and mirrored them. Have seen a lot of people lose info with drive crashes lately. Just and extra backup.

Got it on sale. Had it for at least 1 year no issues. No air conditioning in room so computer more likely to break than hd.

A great replacement from my 1 TB to 2 TB for my other stuff.

This is a WD Green Drive. Excellent for external use because they run so cool. My favorite choice for storing movies.

Bought for a gaming drive to fill with steam games. Good Drive

This hard drive works great, it was easy to install and plenty of storage.

I have 2 of these and use them for storage in hdd enclosures.I only use WD hard drives.These are not suitable for system hard drives because they only run at 5400 rpm.You need the one that runs at 7200 rpm,which is available Best Buy in the store.

A 1tb Is 50 bucks and it's the same company but a 2tb is 40 bucks and it's the same company wow!

I have yet to be disappointed by any of the dozens of WD products I have purchased over the last 20+ years. This product is no exception.

If you need a hard drive, WD is high quality. I have been an WD fan for a while now.

When I went to the store I specifically told the guy that I did not want WD Green HDD. I've had terrible experience with the WD Green drives in the past. He assured me this is a new product that behaves much like WD Black (very good high performance drive). But when I opened package, they didn't even change the sticker on the drive. It read "WD Green WD20EZRX". They are just changing the packaging and marketing the same awful WD Green drives under different name. My experience with multiple WD Green drives in past: Pro: High-capacity drives that hold about 1TB of my data. Con: High-capacity drives that held about 1TB of my data. Each one of them died. I'm going to return my drive in the morning. Buy WD Black or Seagate Barracuda

Worked great for my security camera system.#######

Dont like that you have to replace it in 2 years but it work's for now

Not much to say. It works. Overpriced compared with other brands.

Not much to review. It works as expected. Not enough time of course to speak of durability

Inside the box is a WD Green 5400 drive. All WD is doing is repackaging the cheap slow Green drives into "Mainstream" packaging. Try to find the rotation speed on WD or anywhere else - they don't give it, most likely because it is just 5400 and no one would buy such a drive in the second decade of the 21st century.

I wish I could say something about this drive, but it came dead on arrival as a brand new drive. Wouldn't show up on my PC whether I used my external SATA to USB or putting it I within my internal drive bay and using the SATA connection. Extremely upset as I needed storage last minute and now I'm forced to make a second trip back to the store. Definitely not getting another one of these drives as I'm not risking getting another dead drive.

This drive is not 7200 rpm, its 5400 rpm. I'm sure its a fine 5400 rpm hard drive, but the online description is misleading. I just returned it and replaced it with a WD Black drive, which is in fact 7200 rpm.

Ran this drive as my back up drive. Drive quit and wouldn’t respond after 18 months of use. Was glad that it was only my back up drive. Will not get another WD drive

About a month after the warranty expired I noticed the unit was noisier than before. I ran some diagnostic software against it and it failed on the long generic test before even 2% of the test completed. Although the drive still seems to work, I won't take a chance with it. The disk was used in an HP-x310 Data Vault.
