||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this drive for data storage. it is only 5400 rpm.
I would recommend this to a friendFalse specs, SMR drives
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The specifications falsely show these as CMR drives when they're truly SMR drives and marked up to take advantage of those who wouldn't notice. Learn from my mistake and shop elsewhere.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice drive for a raid array. I needed some 4TB internal drives to replace some failed ones in a RAID array and these worked perfectly.
I would recommend this to a friendDon’t buy if you plan to use it for gaming

I would recommend this to a friendWestern digital blue "junk"
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for a computer that I bought at best buy and the computer died within 3 months. Was so discussed I just put it on the side as the warranty was over and I was discussed. I installed the hard drive in a new computer I built and the drive made ugly noises from day one and then died within 10 hours.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAnother worthless purchase
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is another product that didn't work out and I didn't realize it until it was too late to return. I couldn't get it to take an OS and it only showed less that 2 TB of storage... no where near the 4 TB it was supposed to have. In fact, I was not able to get it to even take any data. I would NOT recommend it to anyone.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was broken and didn't work, and Best buy refused to change it, because I went after 3 weeks asking for help. They said after two weeks we can not help you, asked me to call the manufacturer

Western Digital 4th HDD
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really low quality, the read/write was slower than expected. Only for use in personal computers not for use in a server. Bestbuy has very limited options.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendok
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to work well at this time. Hard to gage if better or not ... as long as it works it works
I would recommend this to a friendGoing out and it’s only been a month
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased it August 26 and it is already going out. It was easy to set up and everything but noticed the performance was getting slower and slower over a weeks time and now it won’t even boot anything. Definitely don’t recommend.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As of 09/30//2021, I got SMR drives inside. Don't buy these! Go for those old fashioned pmr / cmr drives instead if you don't want trouble.
