    So far to good since I have been using it primarily as my backup drive. I have a few HDD and hope this one stays in good health! also, I got it on sale for $180 so it was an AMAZING deal.

    Very nice drive, but can be a bit slow.

    I like this drive's large storage, and it performs just fine, but the drive tends to be slow on initial access. This is mostly true if you haven't accessed it in a while and it has to wake from sleep mode. Otherwise, the drive is great.

    Bought this on sale for under $200 and will never have to worry about storage capacity again. (You can also remove the individual 2GB drives from it for a PC but it'll void your warranty.)

    If you're able to snag this on sale (under 200), pounce. Until SSD's start coming down in price per TB. this right here is the way to go for budget storage.

    Not bad at all. As a content creator, I always need more space. I DON'T edit off this, but rather use it as a second back-up as it's so big. It's GREAT for that as I don't need the speed.

    My wife has terabytes of family photos. No problems either uploading or downloading photos from the drive. I'm going to buy a second one for use as a backup.

    Connected it to my WD NAS server to extend the storage capacity. Use it to store my movies for my media server. Works fine. Great Black Friday sale for $200.

    The WD EasyStore 14TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive is fairly annoying as far as activity and the noise it makes. Continuously doing something and making a racket in the process. This might be a Windows 10 thing but I finally had to unplug it. I only occasionally use it for backing up video files and having it "on-line" when I'm not using it is just not acceptable....too much annoying activity.

    I can always use more external hard drive space, This is plug and play and allows great back-up for my computer. I got it on a Dealof the Day at a great price. I like the 3.0 USB on it.
