Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

I upgraded a client's Dell PC from a 256GB drive to this 2TB drive. I used the free Acronis cloning software you can download from the Western Digital web site to clone his old hard drive to this one. It was easy to use, and I experienced no problems with the cloning. So far, the drive seems good.

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

It works well for exactly what I needed it for, and the price wasn't too bad when I got it.

Quick and easy install. Decent drive. Lots of space.

Western Digital makes great hard drives and this one is no exception. I prefer Western Digital as they have never failed me, unlike the Seagate that died on me after only three years. I've got Western Digital drives going after 10 years and I expect the same for this one.

Large hard drive, at a great price. Fast and reliable.

Great for typical storage needs in Windows/Linux, but do not use this drive for RAID configurations! This drive uses SMR(Shingled Magnetic Recording) method which is not suitable for RAID. You will corrupt your data with this drive. This drive used to use CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording) which is ideal for RAID but WD swapped the CMR for SMR on many of their drives especially in the Blue line. I think theres only CMR in the larger dries of the Blue line. 4tb *might* be CMR but you will want to google which drives use CMR/SMR to be certain. Other than that great storage capacity for the price and WAS my go-to drive for storage till I learned about SMR vs CMR platter methods.

hello, very good purchase option, the hard drive is of a good brand and the most important thing is that they have inventory in their store of different capacities, with a good price

Solid 2TB drive with 7200rpm speed and plenty of cache. I am using this as a back-up drive for an SSD, but the speed of this hard drive is solid....although admittedly not as fast as an SSD. However, I recommend you run any new drive (HDD or SSD) through a series of tests to make sure it performs properly before putting into daily use.

I bought a WD HD to replace the HD in my desktop. In my experience I have never had any issues with Western Digital HD's. It is still new, but I expect that it will outlast my Desktop like its predecessors. (My current Desktop did not come with Western Digital and the HD became corrupt.)

I love this hard drive! Completely new to PCs when I installed this and set it up, and it was extremely easy! With help from some YouTube videos I had no issues! The price for the amount of storage is awesome!!

When the hard drive on my computer crashed, I thought about just getting a new computer. However, for a fraction of what I would have paid for a new computer, I got a better computer as this hard drive is double the capacity of what I had, and what I was looking at on replacement computers.

Works just as well as all the others I've Purchased. I prefer WD Drives For over all reliability and service. I have WD Drives I purchased in the 80's still working as well as the new ones. Granted they don't have near the storage capacity as the new ones. But they still work just as well.

Great value for the quality got this on sale for 60$ and it hasn't given me one problem at all, I am new to building and the ease of install on this was great for someone who hardly knows what they're doing.

Installed easy and preformed well! Just as promised. Glad I found this Harddrive

It seems to be a good hard drive, but I sometimes wonder if I should have purchased additional memory dim to accompany it.

Easy to use and set up. Went from 3 smaller hdds to this one large one. speeds are really good.

Western Digital drives are reliable and hardy. It takes a lot of abuse, and it keeps on performing. This will be my 15th drive purchased and they all last a very long time with proper care and drive maintenance.

This is a good hard drive and works well it is standard and easy to install
