Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought to add digit films and placed it in a HD closure and worked exceptionally…

This drive is a decent storage drive. It has SMR technology, which is slightly inferior to CMR. I am using this deive for backups, so it fits my need. It is a very good deal if you can get it for around 50$.

Easy to install and works as intended not bad price point as well

Hard drive is easy to install and worked flawless!

It may not be as fast as WD Black spindles or SSDs, but for bulk storage on my media server it is perfect - I don’t really hear it, it provides plenty of capacity and is fast enough for my purposes.

Nice large drive. Motherboard MUST support UEFI and you must format the drive in Windows 10 as GPT and not MBR to use full capacity and as Drive 0. Without UEFI capable motherboard you are limited to 2.1T. Also, if you use as Drive 0 and cannot use UEFI then windows cannot partition the drive into multiple drives.

I've been using Western Digital drives for over 15 years and have never had a issue with their products. I'm currently using two of these drives for my NAS to stream my personal collection of movies and pictures through my personal network.

Use it as back up for all my files on my computer. Works great and keeps on trucking

Upon opening the packaging I was dismayed that all there was inside was a plastic bag. Luckily I dug deeper and found the hard drive inside that bag. So, you get a hard drive, a box, some plastic, and a free bag. The hard drive worked just fine, but the free bag just made for some extra purchase. 10 stars.

My general rule for hard drives has been if this seems like you'll never need this much space, get the next size up.

Used to back up the data on the PC primary diskdrive which is an SSD drive. Works without a fuss. I expect it to last for a long time because it is lightly for periodic back ups only

The product works as advertised. I do not like the corporation promoting politics of any type. The "pride" LGBTQ stuff displayed in the store is offensive. I may never shop there again.

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

Good hard drive with lots of space. Good value for the money.

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.

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.

I use Western digital for many builds.Very Easy to install and did its job.

Great hard drive with a lot of space. I've installed a lot of games on it and still have a bunch of space left

It works, it has the space it says it does, it's about as fast as you'd expect.

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.
