Expands storage and excellent for safekeeping of important documents. I keep mine in storage just in case my computer goes down and I don’t risk looking hours of work

If you have a lot of people on you network like I do.
This makes a good low power NAS with a raspberry pi 4
Just make sure to block Microsoft from your pi 4 not the files on the NAS just the OS and it will run like a clock... youtube has some videos on this.
This is going to be my backup NAS so it's only going to run about 2 times a week.
I just hope this is not an SMR drive if it is it's going back
I will be testing it soon

The first Hd I purchased was very loud (bad Hd). Returned it for a second one and it works great! Ton of storage and got it on sale for a great price.
I would recommend this to a friend

Got this to use as a backup drive. I am a photographer and have a ton of photos to keep safe. This does the job. Easy to use. Install software, setup backup and you're done. The software has really been updated.

This is the second drive I have purchased. The first a year ago. The drive is fast, and takes up little desk space. Runs quietly. What more can you adk?

Great Product. Easy to use (plug in and go). No formatting or anything needed. Small, just throw in backpack and use whenever (although metal case)

So far so good. Had to have more storage as three teens and Dad can't come to agreement on what to uninstall. The amount of space for the money seems very reasonable. Install was simple.

When on sale, this is the best value external drive you can buy. Best Buy arranges some serious magic with WD to get these 8TB easystore models priced extremely low at times, with the hard drive mechanism inside worth nearly twice as much. Those bare drives rarely go on sale, which makes these external models very popular. This is no cheap-o hard drive. These are a variant on the 5400 RPM WD Red, designed for 24/7 always-on usage in server systems. So far, mine have been extremely quiet as well. Zero complaints. Keep those WD deals coming, Best Buy!
