    Drive is quiet, runs cool, and has high capacity. Performance is very good, especially considering it runs at 5400 RPM.

    These are great for shucking and using in a NAS, which is what I do with them. I have been using WD Easystore drives for many years with no issues.

    I play PS4 games on a SSD and this external drive is connect to a PS4 Pro via USB. The games load time from USB Drive isn’t as fast as SSD but very good IMO. It’s probably load as fast as a regular Internal HDD. 8TB serves me very well considering all the things it holds from PS+ Monthly free games and free to play games.

    Product works well with transferring data from windows 10 to windows 11. My only complaint is that I wish the instructions were more informative.
