    Best Hard drives I've used. And the price per GB. And best Manufacturers Warranty, which I don't believe you will need. I have used several brands over the years and I always go back to WD they just don't let me down

    Upon initial formatting, my computer only recognized this as a 2 TB drive. A few internet searches later and I got this to its full capacity. One can say that this is more space than rhey ever need. One would also be lying to themselves. I am half full already. Overall, a good drive that does what it needs to do.

    Was worried I'd notice the decrease in RPM compared to the drive I had but so far it's been fine and having the extra storage means I can game, archive things and record gameplay/take screenshots as much as I please without worrying.

    I purchased this drive to use in a system that has to run 24/7. So far it has performed well. I've used this model drive in other applications without any issues. I will continue to purchase as needed.

    Needed a larger hard drive for media, pictures, videos. Found this drive on sale for the same price as another 2TB drive - the choice was obvious to me. has worked great so far.

    Fast drive, easy install. I've used a lot of WD and Seagate drives and would buy this one again. To be fair, I don't know how anyone could properly review a product like this after using it for just a couple weeks. I suppose you could report if it failed within that amount of time, but other than that all there is to say is it's working as expected.

    Great if you need some extra storage space. WD is one of the top 3 or 4 HDD manufacturers, and I have never had a WD drive fail on me in the 8 or so years I have been using them, and this drive is no exception. As a general rule of thumb (that this HDD follows as well) This is great for storing slower paced single player games, but if you're interested in storing some fast paced multi player games that you want to load quickly, it would be better to go for a WD black drive or an SSD.

    I use this hard drive for basic storage. Works great for what I need. Getting windows 10 to recognize that the hard drive is there requires a little setup but nothing a google search can't fix. Not the hard drives fault. Windows fault.

    I'm sad to revert back to running games from HDD now that my sandisk 960 SSD is full but this drive is quick enough and silent also. 190mb/s read/write is better than my older HDD's. It only took 37 minutes to clone using the free acronis download. I would buy another one when I fill up this 4TB.

    I have always liked Western Digital hard drives and have owned several of them for a number of computers. This hard drive has proven very reliable for data storage and responsive when I want to retrieve the data.

    I am not tech savvy at all! My boyfriend and I are both gamers and I needed more space! This was SO simple to place inside of my computer! It works great!! I’ve added all my games just to this hard drive and I couldn’t be happier!

    Affordable and reliable HDD. I have a 1 TB replacement in my ps4 pro as well that's been going fine for the past few years. Of course it's not as fast as an SDD but for storing media, it works great.
