8TB is Nice . . . But I Will Need More Space!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Magnificent . . . I have two 4TB WD Drives, one 4TB WD Drive, and two 4TB Seagate Drives for Video and Audio Backups. Since it is a desktop HDD, it does require a power brick and will not run off the computer without it. I usually disconnect the drives and store in a cool dry place so I am (usually) not worried about electromagnetic damage from power surges or the like (also have UPS). 8TB is Nice . . . But I Will Need More Space! I will probably end up buying the 10 and 12 TB shortly depending on how I rotate the A/V across the drives.
I would recommend this to a friend Always go with WD
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I always trust Western Digital for all my storage needs. This product is the best hard drive I have ever owned. Fast and quiet, and doesn't run hot at all. I trust it to last for ten years at least.
