    I waited almost a year to write a review. The reason is that I wanted to put it through high usage to see if any part returned errors or did not function. I store 8 TB worth of data and updating it at lease 3 times per week throughout the year. Have received zero errors and no malfunctions yet. It is not as fast as a solid state drive but I do not need the performance. It is slim enough to be on your desktop, does not overheat, and is quiet.

    Great experience with WD drives, granted, the drives are only use for backup and usually are upgraded after a year or so.

    I picked up a couple of these as cheap large storage devices. Personally, I wouldn't use such large drives without a backup solution. However, so far, these have worked just fine for me.

    12 TB is a good size. Try to create 6TB mirror and that will be best to back up. Or simply use WD tools to back up
