    Hard to beat the TB/$ ratio for this purchase, only nitpick I would have is WD should include an adapter or at least sell one next to drives in store for their Shucksters.

    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.

    Huge hard drive, great price. Speed is pretty good, on par with the external WD 2TB drive I was using. The only downside is that only 12.7 TB are usable out of the 14 advertised.

    Great product! Works perfect with Windows 10. No need to reformat the drive and perfectly suitable for data back up. I have already used this product for 10 months and it has never failed to boot up and always has been recognized by OS. Data transfer is very fast. Only downside is that Windows reads around 12.6 TB drive instead of 14 TB.

    I bought this on Black Friday sale for $189.99. Then I went home, shucked it and put it in my newly assembled pc. If you are gonna do the same, make sure you have an IDE Molex to SATA Power Cable ready.

    Works good. I use it to backup files from my Linux desktop. Just plug it in and start copying the files. Copy the file to the external 14 TB hard drive. It will take a long time to fill it up though.
