Great External Drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This contains an 8TB red drive inside, which is a very good and durable hard drive. I've purchased several of these and they all work great with absolutely no problems.

Could be Better
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A pretty average and slow external backup drive. Windows had to install an updated driver for this. It works, but there are better options out there. I also wonder why some companies would have an external drive stand up, vice lay flat?
This review is from WD - easystore 8TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive - Black
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Usb

WD 8TB Red Drive Inside
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Makes a great external USB 3.0 drive or you can shuck the internal drive for use in a NAS. Either way this Red drive is tried and true and should last you a long time.

Great drive!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm getting about 150 MB/s transferring between the two drives I bought, which is great for a spinning disk. We'll see if they hold up long-term, but I have high hopes.

Expanded memory for apple time machine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ran out of memory on my time machine. This allowed me to expand my backup capability without purchasing a new expensive time machine that's cr_p quality anyway. Reformatting was a little tricky but it works great now. The cost for amount of memory is unbeatable and it's WD!
