    A+ It's great while in use, but - from my experience- if disconnected for any length of time it becomes a paperweight for some reason.

    Great product if you need to store data. Need a outlet plug cause it has it's own power. Seems to be real fast on transfers at about 190 m/s. Bought several of these to store company information. Great alternative if you do not have the space inside your computer.

    So easy to use and hook up right out of the box. I have very large files I needed to transfer and this hard drive made that a very easy task.

    I was running out of storage space on my desktop. I had already added a 4TB internal drive, and already had an external eSATA drive (2TB). I was discounting using a USB drive verses an eSATA considering the 6Gbps of eSATA and wondering if that was the right move. I did the research, weighed the options, but ultimately the price prevailed, as at least I would have the storage space. Now that I have it, I can say that there is no question to go this route. It has performed flawlessly, for one. The CPU load accessing the USB seems to be less than with the eSATA, so the performance seems to be less intrusive. Also the real-world usage appears to be faster. I am using the drive to stream video to my Oculus Quest 2 via Link (USB) and have had no issues. If you have USB 3.x I would highly recommend this for a storage solution. I have not yet found a down-side. As an aside, this was a b-day present to myself (actually purchased *on* my b-day) :-)

    This was a great deal in my experience. And WD hdd is very stable and well working. Also, I can easily extract HDD from this device and can use it by inserting to my desktop. (But a little trick is required to hid 3rd sleeping pin).

    This is a great external hard drive for storage, backup, etc. The price was really competitive as Best Buy members had early access! Superb product and very well worth the cost. 14TB can easily hold all my videos, photos, and music files that I have collected over the decades!!

    Great price for such a large storage capacity. If you’re using this on a Mac, make sure to reformat the drive into the proper file format. Also if you plan to use it for time machine backups and storage, make a partion

    been using since the day i bought it, works like a charm. it's not fast, but for multimedia storage, it's ample. the trick is wait till it goes on sale, which is quite often and make it a sweet buy. note: it won't work on ps4, the size exceeds the max allowed.
