8TB, I will never fill this hard drive up? (Hmm)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This hard is to replace my 3TB HD that are used to back up my music. I have three copies of this 3TB HD. One is the working drive and two are backups. Once a quarter I copy the contents of the main to the back up drive. This process takes 22 hours. When I copied the main HD to the new 8TB HD it only took 6 hours. Yes, I used the same computer with the same cables and power supply. The only thing different was the 8TB HD instead of the 3TB HD.
