Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have used WD hard drives for many years and they have never failed me. This drive is great to use to back up volumes of data, pictures, movies, etc. I bought 3 and use one for laptop back up, 1 each on Xbox X game systems. I have stored 6 TB of games on 1 and they run just as fast off the external drive as they do off internal drive. Superb value.

A lot of storage and is plug and play so you just plug it in and it works.

Great buy. 8TB is a huge amount of disk space. Very simple plug and play operation that comes with back-up software. You don't have to use the back-up software if just looking for additional storage capacity. Product is very small in size so it doesn't take up much space. Electric Cord is long so it can be placed away from the computer if needed.

Had this a while and it works great. Saved us from a crashing drive and holds a lot more. No hiccups with this device.

I use this easy store for all my thousands of photos and backups of my computer. It was semi-easy to install and set up for weekly back up and for transferring directly from my memory card to the easy store my photos' from each and every vacation we have taken. We keep two back ups of all our photos and this did the trick....

Purchased at a discount, I got this drive for about $20 per terrabyte. I am an older person, and I got into the personal computer revolution way back when it started. Does anybody remember the Epson QX-10? Anyway, 8 terrabyte drive for backups, this is an important addition to my computer system(s). Works flawlessly, quietly. My only complaint is an odd one about cosmetics. I wish they didn't encase the drive in a hard plastic that appears to attract every dust particle in the house. To get back to the "clean black look" I have to wipe it down every other day. Here in Bend, OR where summer wildfires have been nearby, whenever we opened with windows to let in some fresh, albeit smokey, air, all of a sudden I got a very dusty drive. That cant' be good for its innards over the long haul.

Needed an external storage solution to backup data that was to be deleted and this handled it painlessly and with room left over for future use cases.

Works excellent right out of the box. Huge storage, nice price, lets hope it lasts years!

Great product Recommendation for safe and protected all your files

Perfect for Backups. Fast, Durable, Afforable and Really Easy to Use and Reliable!

Works as expected. Connected it to my PC, and it was recognized immediately. Easy plug-and-play, drag-and-drop solution for extra/portable storage.

Lots of storage space and works great with my Xbox Series X. Only downside is newer games will not play from it unless they are moved to internal storage. Not a drive problem, but an Xbox problem. Still great storage for the price.

Lot’s of storage! Easy to use and fast. Portable storage for fun or office.

WD brand is an excellent brand.. low noise, excellent storage capacity.

After trying this one, never bought another brand for external storage, I own 7 of this different capacity. All of the keep working as first day. Thanks WD for your product and to the store for best service ever.

Great product with a great price. I bought it to back up my Lightroom files and it has plenty of room to House my 10k plus photos.

Great device. Comes with everything you need. Plenty of storage. Has a western digital red drive inside. works perfectly for NAS.

Awesome storage capacity. Great price. Got it for $139 while retail is $299. Fast drive that utilizes USB3.0. Can’t ask for more.

Item works good I recommend this item to save as a backup

Setup of the hardware was very easy. The new software called Acronis used to create backups is a bit hard to get exactly the way you want it. For example I need to backup 2 terabytes and because of the way it does full and incremental backups I filled all 8 terabytes of the drive up because it was creating multiple full backups without deleting the old ones first.
