    Great Hard Drive, mainly use it for Storage for Videoes/Pics when running out of space on Phone memory. Good back up. Possible also good use for storing video games from the PC. Only reason for 4 Stars due to high Pricing even with a discount. Good for memory storage or back up and for game files as well.

    Great HDD. Small and sleek and very easy to use. Only downside is that the HDD is a little loud.

    Easystore drives are a "MUST HAVE" for me. I would tell you that I have 20 of them laying around the house (not joking) but you'd think I was crazy, right? Right?! In all seriousness though – these things are fast enough, hold tons of data, are easy to throw into the back of a trunk if an emergency comes up and you have to evacuate a home. I highly recommend.

    This has so far proven to be a good storage device. I am using it with a MacBook Pro and have had no issues other than having to format it to work on both Windows and the MACOS. I use it for video and photography and the files tend to get quite large.

    Great product. These are essentially the enterprise drives for half the price. "shucked" the drive out of the enclosure without any issue. Has been running great as an internal drive. As with any other hard drive, make sure not to physically move the drive while it is powered on.

    So far so good. Really needed to put misc. content from half dozen smaller external drives and memory stick, old desktops and laptops in one place. NOW I can quickly search and find what I need. Really helps!

    Very good backup device and reasonably priced for the size of the storage. Only thing that would make it better would be a power on/off switch - so I didn't have to unplug it every time I was done using it for a while.

    The speed on these hard drives is always hit or miss. Sometimes they are incredibly fast, some times they are incredibly slow. the last one we got was the former! This one is the ladder. But it's 18 friggen terabytes and I'm good for a while so I'll take it.

    This is my 3rd Easystore USB HDD, very dependable, no failures to date. I store MKV videos & music on them. Word of advice, they tend to run warm-to-hot if used laying flat. The drive has vents on either end so the heat can exit. That means the drive will be standing up-right as heat rises. Recommend...

    Shucked this relatively less expensive 18TB drive to use in my NAS. Have not been disappointed. Only thing of note is that the heads are considerably louder than any of the others I have (12TB and 14TB versions of the same drive). Works perfectly though and not an issue for its use.
