Good large spaced backup drive at low cost
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a real good buy for backup space. The only caveat is that the drive does power down or sleeps after a certain number of minutes of inactivity. With scheduled backups this can be problematic and cause a backup failure, which I have experienced already.

Worked as expected
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked exactly as expected. Just plug it in and it is available, with USB 3.0 speeds. About 10x faster than USB 2. Needed to copy data to it, to ship out to a data recovery company. Worked great for our intended use.

Good fast 8 TB external drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Steady and reliable, good for stable connections. Not self powered from the USB port but sits next to the computer, blends in with the other "full sized" external HD units I have, along with a handful of portable HDs.

Great Inexpensive Backup Drive

NOT PlayStation 4 Compatible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I literally bought this for my Playstation 4 to use as a second drive to have my video games loaded and saved on. This drive is actually 8.1 TB which is actually not a bad thing at all but i gave this a 1 star so you can read this if you want to use it for the PS4. My rating is only based on that i do not need it for my MacBook.

Great External Drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this drive after much research. After about a month in use, I found this drive to work great. The spin up time is a little slower than some other drives, but the transfer speed appears to be noticeably higher as well. These contain WD Red Drives.

Great buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product was a much better purchase then the WD with the password protected. This one is not password-protected so the connection is not lost and have to be reestablished like the WD One I previously bought that does have password protection
