Customer Ratings & Reviews

Installed as expected, worked as expected. First of all, I got this to back up some old movie files for storage. I installed the drive, copied the files to it and then disconnected to power to it. So basically it is just sitting there as an insurance policy against my other drive crashing. It is doing well for that purpose.

It's fine, I'm primarily using it for media cold storage (photos, videos, etc) and it's working. No advertised RPM on the box so it wasn't until afterwards that I found out it was 5600RPM instead of 7200 but, again, it's a hard drive and I'm not using it for more than mass storage. So it's perfect.

Needed large hard drive for storage. This drive is just what I needed.

Needed to upgrade my storage to hold all pics and music. This worked out fine. Easy install and easy storage.

Fast and so far reliable to store lots of data and various media

Was looking to replace a very old drive. Works as needed and runs quietly.

A great value for large amounts of space; if you need it. Reasonably fast (for a HDD) and well engineered; easy to install and use.

Good space for the money. If it lasts, I'll give it 5 stars, but that'll take years to determine. I've had better luck with WD than Seagate in the past.

easy to install and you will have a lot of space to save your data

Great mass Storage and respectable read and write speeds for a hard drive. I need mass storage for video editing so I put this in my PC with my free Hard Drive Tray. When I use OBS as soon as I end the recording the video is almost instantaneously available as a file to be used.

Western Digital delivers again always with a great product built to deliver performance and longevity. I have used every type of HDD over the years and WD is hands down the best. And thank you Best Buy for the deals on these. Didn't have to order online, got a better price in store!!

Great price and great for storing movies and TV shows on your PC

Great value for the size. Works as advertised just remember this ain't no ssd. More than enough space for your pc game library.

This drive was easy to install and even comes with screws. good price.

Excellent value. No problems upgrading. Ease of use!

Excellent hard drive, I have purchased several WD SATA hard drives from Best Buy and have never had a problem or failure with any of them.

Easy to install, and so nice to have even more storage

Great bang for your buck. I bought it on sale for just over $60. However, depending on what exactly you're building, I might recommend an SSD instead. If this is a work PC, then this is perfectly fine, doubt you'll ever reach the 4TB limit. However, if you're building a gaming PC, I'd recommend going with WD's Blue 4TB SSD instead. Though it is several times more expensive, for the same storage, you're going to be glad you purchased it.

This was easy to install and works great. I used it to replace my hardrive for mor space.

Only had it for a month but it is working fine. WD is supposed to be a good brand for reliability. Some people are saying that there might be two versions of this drive. One with newer technology. I don't know if I got the better one or if I would be able to tell the difference. I just need a bigger drive for back up files.
