    It was easy to set up and has decent speed. Write speeds are @ 100-125 MB/s with large file writes. The packaging is great. My only complaint about this particular model of drive is it seems to be somewhat warm, and there’s no fan in the drive for cooling. It’s still recommended at the price I got it ($150).

    Scads of room for my photos...

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    My photos were scattered over a number of CD's, DVD's, backup drives, and miscellaneous flash drives. This "beast" gave me the luxury of consolidating all of that and to build a Lightroom library that allows me to sort, catalog, view and enjoy them all in one place. I'm considering another one as a backup for this one.

    This restores my faith in WD external drives. Although my old WD My Book 8TB was hot and noisy, I decided to take a chance when the easystore went on sale. Luckily, it is everything I want - cool, quiet and backs up my system smoothly. I also like its sleek lines. The two-toned look of My Book is just not for me. I withhold the fifth star because the easystore doesn't have WD Security (password protection with hardware encryption). It doesn't matter to me, but others may want that feature.
