Customer Ratings & Reviews

The top speed on this hard drive is about 150 MB bad for the storage and how much it cost is really good don't think you're going to find a better deal than this.

Hard drive worked well for archiving important information being transferred into digital format. No problems to be reported though start-up vibration is somewhat pronounced.

Works very well for offline storage. Very fast upload speeds when connected and very sturdy design.

I’m using this as backup drive for my Windows based computer. It works pretty well for this purpose with tons of space. If I had one complaint it is it can be noisier than previous WD external drives I have bought. It makes a light “thunk” sound periodically. Otherwise it has been running fine for the past couple months.

Works. Cost effective for lots of storage and backup

Fast drive, connected it to the USB port on my router and we can access it from our local network devices. Never used remote access with our old one, so didn't want or need one that does that.

Great HDD but little noisy like clicking when idle.

Works well right out of the box on my PC without the need to format. The drive is fairly quiet and isn't loud when reading or writing files. I got it on sale during the holiday sales but I wouldn't buy at regular price.

Great drive so far. Hope it lasts a couple years.

The 14TB drive arrived early and fully functional. I did a complete scan, took about 32 hours, and the drive surface was good. I'm using the drive on Windows 10 Home. There is a single drive in the case, which I prefer.

Amazing. Love it!!! Recommend to everyone. I have had 7 hardrives in the past. This one knocks them all out of the office!!!!!!

What can you say about a hard drive other than it works the way it was intended. It’s stores files and it’s fast to copy those files on and off the drive. Don’t pay full price for these just wait for them to go on sale.

If you worry about ransom ware, but doubt “pie in the cloud if you get hacked,” this is a great adder to an Apple Airport.

Seems to be working, but I did hear clicking and it comes back every now and then. It’s distracting. Drive is noisier than other WDs I have too. WD gave me an unhelpful link when I asked about the clicking. I’m still trying it out while in the return window.

This is my second WD external HD I save lots of photos from my travels. It is simple to use just plug it in and use it just like your normal in computer drive.

Very good backup drive. This is my second one and had no problems with the first one

Great value. The 14 terrabytes of storage is exactly what I needed to store high resolution photographs.

Easy to setup. Great deal. Good partner with my new computer for back ups

USB 3.0 it's great and perfect for backing up my IMac. I have a 16TB version and they are fast and responsive. A must have for any disaster recovery.

I bought this drive to replace a 2tb NAS drive. It only has 12.7tb of space available even after a few complete formats. Wasn't a huge deal. Transfer speed is fast. It's also very quiet and lights are not super bright.
