Excellent, high quality HDD
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works as it should and it's not too noisy. Most of this brand of HDD enclosures have Western Digital Red drives in them which tend to be a lot more expensive without the enclosure because they're used in NAS setups. So they're very high quality drives considering a lot of companies put cheap drives in their enclosures which tend to fail rather quickly.

Simple
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s simple. It’s a hard drive and gets the jobs done. However, if you own a mac, have a usb adapter to accommodate your product.

Very reliable and a good price for a 8tb
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I already have one of these at home, so when I saw these were marked down during a flash sale I decided to get another one. WD hasn't let me down before, and it's very hard these days to find external storage that requires a power supply, which I prefer. Speeds are good and price per size on a sale is a very good deal.

Quick and Easy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed this for work - my current external drive was filling up and couldn't hold any more back-ups. I went big to be sure I wouldn't have to do this again for a while. This was easy to set up and now my computer back-ups have a new home. I always head for Western Digital for external drives. Have had really good luck with them.

Wonderful 8 terabyte hardrive.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to update my ever growing library of data. With video games broaching on 90gb I knew I was in need of a hefty hdd and this one definitely fit the bill. It’s plug and play was a big decider in my purchase plus the price was right. I backed up my 2 terabyte hdd in a couple of hours so the transfer rate on this product is up there in my opinion. If you need something that’s fast, sleek, and affordable this is the external hard drive for you.
