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.

Awesome drive and price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When this goes on sale, it's a steal. I got it for $160 although it's been lower. Mine happened to have a WD red NAS drive inside with 256mb cache! Very happy w the performance.

so far so good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plenty of storage space and is actually rather quiet when its in operation.. Kind of a cheap plastic case for the drive though, it doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. But its easy to just plug in and let it do its job.
