works on all my computers
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some of my other external hard drives work only with certain versions of windows. This external HD can be read by all of my computers; some of which are over 10-years old. Easy to use. It is just plug and play.

Plug In and Go
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit is so simple to use. Plug in attach to your PC and use. The speed of use is only limitted by your computer, not the drive. I have used it to back up our computers data including photos and store it off site.

Used for Synology NAS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I actually purchased these to install in a Synolgy NAS. Once the drive arrived it was opened up and used in the NAS. Even though they were the WD White Drives they worked perfectly in the device and I saved about $120 by doing this.

Works as advertised

Change in type of drive supplied
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had 2, returned them because they both ran VERY hot right out of the box, 57 after 2 hours. Crystal Disk Found that the type is WD80edaz, which is important, because no one knows if it is a CMR or SMR drive?? The real question is what type of drive is this, why the overheating and why did they change??

Massive storage at a great price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this external storage drive on sale and combined it with a new Lima Ultra to create my own personal home cloud. Fast set-up as soon as I plugged it into the network. I'm very happy with the response time on both my MacMini and Surface Pro.

Shuccable and fantastic
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The purchase of this drive, with it's ease in shuckability, is still going strong nearly 2 years later. Be warned, this drive is a gateway to going full NAS in your home. Looking to go to 64TB by end of 2020 at this rate.
