    I love how huge the drives are now a days and very affordable. The drive works great and the speeds are pretty much the same to me as any other external drives I have so I have zero issues.

    I own multiple easystore drives of various sizes and haven't had an issue with any of them yet. I use them to backup data from my NAS. I'm removing 1 star from the rating because I would prefer a 3 year warranty and the price was higher than it was previously.

    I have tried both WD and Seagate drives. WD drives just last longer and work from the get go. These two drives I purchased are no different and work like a charm.

    Needed a backup solution for my desktop and this did the job. Easy to install and to use. Also. If you keep a lookout you can find a good deal on it.

    The drives plugged right and backed up my files extremely fast over usb 3. I put on a usb fan at the top to help cool them off though. Runs a little hot in the enclosure.

    I love this drive and use it to store everything on my computer. If it was SSD that would be sweet but also 4 times as much money. Either way, it works great for storing.

    Nothing special to write here. Solid unit, no issue in setup or formatting. Great deal for 12gb when I bought it on sale. Doesn't get any better for a simple external drive.

    With all the hard drives that I own, it is hard to tell them apart, but I THINK I use this for more recent files, whereas my 14TB I use for older (1900s-2013) files. No hiccups. Solid value during a sale.

    I picked up 2 of these recently for use in expanding my NAS storage. It works great for a standalone hard drive also if you aren’t into shucking drives.
