Customer Ratings & Reviews

I use this drive for backup and in music production. Works flawlessly and easily, especially with a good backup software. I use Acronis backup software, and between this drive and the software finally have a reliable, easy to use backup solution that I can configure as I want. No Time Machine!

This Hard Drive Is A Great Addition For Anyone Looking To Upgrade Their Storage For Their Video Game System!

Purchase 4, after 2 months of use, so far it’s ok. Air filled, not helium.

Excellent hard drive to neck up data. Formatted for MAC and we were all set

I use this for my xbox one x and it works great. only bad thing is there is no power switch to shut it off.

I learned long ago that larger and larger programs are created that take up hard drive space faster than you think. This hard drive should meet most of your needs for storage. Ideal size for storing all of your family photos in one spot to share for a lifetime.

This EHD has been my storage for videos during 2.5 years of daily use. I leave it safely protected on my desk, so cannot speak to travel durability, but it works reliably with my Apple laptop.

Does what it was designed to do and hopefully last a longtime.I do like the fact that it has USB 3.1 built in so its faster than those older USB 2 models.

WD Easystore 8TB provides plenty of space to store all data into a safe one bank. It takes only a few hours to back up all my data from two laptop without any problem or hitch. The software is very easy to follow and with one click the backup process commences automatically.

These are rock solid drives. Case is sturdy, and very little noise/vibration from drive sitting on my desk

Solid external drive and decent backup software. Have tried both WD and Seagate external drives and both work well. Wish both were a bit easier to use, but neither has an advantage. USB 3.0 helps with data transfer and strongly suggest that feature.

Nice having a big easy to use external drive where I can copy over all my files. Not using the WD backup software and don't really plan to. Not a drive I keep connected all the time, just when copying my media and other files. Easy to plug and play movies through my TV too.

Only took a few minutes to reformat this drive for use with a Mac. Will use it as my time machine drive.

This is a great deal when discounted as compared to just bare bones 8TB drives, especially for a NAS! If you chuck the case and pull the drive out you will need a 4-pin molex to SATA power adapter for the drive to start up properly.

Excellent brand memory at a good price, highly recommended.

Definitely a good product worth price and good connectivity

Great external hdd backup. It has enough space and more to backup all your family pictures. There is no built in software to backup seamlessly. I don't recommend leave the external hdd plugged in as it stress the hard drives.

For the price it a good sneaker backup. I use two of them to create my own sneaker raid back up. But the warranty is only 1 year

So far I have been very happy with this hd. I ran some tests and found out I was lucky enough to get a thailand 8tb red hard drive with the larger cache size. I have been very happy with it's performance even running games on the drive.

Easy to install and connect. No issues purchasing from the store.
