    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.

    Good drive for the money. WD Whites tend to run a bit hot, especially at higher capacities so I try to spin it down unless I'm using it.

    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.

    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.

    I shuck these and use them in my UnRaid NAS. They work perfectly. I use hot swap trays, so the 3.3 volt issue is never an issue for me.

    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.

    So far no issues. Requires AC plug and USB connectivity. Speed is fast and so far runs quietly. A bit bulky but manageable. Format to FAT32 slow when quick format not selected. Overall, very pleased with the purchase!

    Extra Large Storage

    Add an extra 14TB of storage for just about anything. Best used in applications with high reads and low numbers of writes, like backup or a NAS. I have two of these. The other one direct from WD, although it's a WD Elements, but they're effectively the same as the EasyStore models sold exclusively at BestBuy. Still SMR-free, at least for now.
