    Reliable, high-capacity drive

    This is actually the second 14TB easystore drive I've purchased, this time for my wife's computer. I've had a number of hard drive failures over the years, mostly with Seagate Drives. No hard drive is 100% reliable, but i've bought a number of WD hard drives as well as SanDisk SSDs, and only one has failed, and after years of use. These high-capacity drives aren't the fasted available, but they're reliable and perfect for storing large volumes of data, such as digital media, or for backing up your data. I use this drive as a Time Machine backup for an extensive collection of photos, music and videos I have stored on NAS, and it works perfectly and seamlessly in the background

    I have had very good luck with all the 14TB drives I've purchased from Best Buy. I think I only had one failure in about 70 drives.

    This was a great deal at $189 wait for the sales. As for the hard drive I have had no issues and would recomend this to anyone. WD is a reputable company with outstanding products.

    Great performance as an internal drive

    Removed the drive from the enclosure to use inside of a PC, and the drive has worked perfectly. Good read/write speeds, low noise, and no sectors lost after 18 months of 24/7 use. The USB enclosure also worked very well as a plug-and-play drive, and even worked when I moved a different drive into the enclosure. If you plan to remove the drive from the enclosure, always check the health/capacity of the drive before removing it, as removing it from the enclosure voids the warranty. There have also been several cases of people swapping out cheap/broken drives into the enclosures before returning the product.

    I was able to snag at discount during the BF sale. The product was packaged properly, with an excellent build quality and so far the drive has been very reliable. Over all a great bang for the buck!

    Just like many computer components, hard drives have been hard to get at a good price - This was an awesome deal $/Tb, and the drive is super fast for a traditional mechanical disk.

    When on sale, this is the best value for large storage. These also make good internal drives. If you keep it in the external case, you may need airflow if your drive is in constant use.

    Great value per TB, especially if you get it on sale like I did. Only complaint is that mine runs pretty loud sometimes (can hear components pretty loudly, even when i'm not opening/moving anything on it), hope that's not a defect of mine specifically lol

    Purchased two of these on sale for my Synology NAS. Great value at under $15 per gig. Will most likely come back to the easystore drives when I need more space.

    Fast enough for my needs as a mass storage. When on sale for $200 + the 15% trade in of an old HDD this was a steal of a deal. Great speeds and perfect for mass storage.

    A bit slow at times but for the price you get a decent amount of storage. While you can play games off an external drive like this you should probably limit it to older titles.
