    I've bought a lot of WD external drives. This one is my favorite. It has more usable capacity and transfer speed than the 8/10tb ones, which were quite slow. That being said, all of the WD drives offers higher sustained speed than the cheaper Seagate ones.

    Bought this to use as an internal hard drive but I liked the convenience of an external drive so I left it put on my desk. Surprisingly fast for a physical drive. Definitely would recommend. Haven't filled up 2TB yet and I've been trying!

    I switched from another brand to the line of WD externals a few years ago and have never looked back. As a film collector, this easystore 14TB fits my needs to a t. I'm sure it will be just as reliable as my previous hard drives from WD have been.

    Enclosure is quite a bit bigger than the hard drive inside. It's a basic, plug-n-play hard drive. Not sure what all the extra space is for. No USB-C adapter or port. Makes a little noise when active. Not loud, but audible if you're in a quiet room.

    I got 2 of the WD Easystore 14TBs while they were on sale, to help me consolidate 8 HDs down to 2. I was hoping to reduce some power consumption, but my smart plug is reporting around the same power usage. Major bummer! But it is nice to only have files scattered across 2 drives instead of 8, it makes organizing much easier! I just hope it never fails, that would be a major disaster! Speed is good, not lightning fast but good enough. I use these with my 2010 MacPro 5,1, so I know that's my cause for the r/w slowdown. But the computer is solid and it still works great for over a decade of use. Not many other computers can say or do that!
