Junk
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lasted almost 2 weeks. Started making a bunch of beeping noises, after a few days. Then it failed. I figured maybe it overheated, because I hooked it back up in an hour after cooling, then it died a couple days later completely. Great price, worthless product.

Excellent space and quite reliable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This drive is definitely sizable. I have purchased many of these and so far, so good. If you plan on shucking these, keep in mind the drives probably are sata v 3.3 which means if your power supply is not 3.3 compliant, you will have to use a molex to sata power adapter. I found out the hard way.

WD - easystore® 8TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive -
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This drive has been up and running since I bought it around 7 months ago with no problems at all. Wish I would have bought a couple since the cost of the guys fluctuates quite offend. When it goes back down to what I paid for it last, or cheaper I hope, I'll pick up a couple of more to put in my NAD.

Easy to use!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this hard drive to store data from my old laptop as the laptop was on its last leg.

Great for storage!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I snagged this on sale during Black Friday, and it's been great so far. I needed something to store backup copies of data on; because as they say, data you don't have backed up is data you don't care about losing!! We'll see how it holds out, but the drive inside is reportedly very highly rated!
