Customer Ratings & Reviews

has been great so far! I had a couple of bad experiences with WD hard drives but this ones works well as a storage and working hard drive. I do keep it stationary on my desk and it does not move from that space + stays connected to my computer. will be purchasing another one soon. can't beat the price!

I bought this product for storage and I really like it. Worth the purchase!

I needed a much larger drive for my movie server. This was an awesome price.

Internal drive is a WD White Label WD80EDAZ. Many videos can be found on YouTube on how to shuck the drive and open the case. Popping the updated case open is exactly like for former version even though the exterior of the case looks a bit updated. Wait for it to go on sale and you can get a great deal.

Very easy to install/get set up for massive storage availability... perfect!

Solid performance. Quick write time. Very quick pulling files.

This is... I think, my 8th or 9th WD easystore drive. Of the 8TB variety, this is my 6th. These are great for back-ups and storage of large files. I shucked 4 of them and installed them into a NAS. They work great. Not a single hiccup.

Very clean Very quiet Appropriate speed Easy interface affordable price

Great drive for Mac Time Machine backup - reformat for Mac using Disk Utility. Really good value for 8TB! Quieter and better value than the other WD 8TB.

Love this hard drive now I don't have to worry about space at all I'm using it as my backup drive for all my important things and I was able to free up two other hard drives I was using in the meantime great company great quality product.

WD external drive…Good for Time Machine backup… I recommend it

Was able to get this up and running easily with the included quick-start. I'm using it to backup the laptop required for all engineering freshmen at Virginia Tech - if I lost my data or work, i do have an overnight service plan, but it wouldn't restore my data. Every Wednesday night it backs up my hard drive, and now my room-mate is using it as well - there's plenty of space!

I have bought a number of these and none of them have failed. The key to have reliability is to buy not all at once but at different times and from different retailers. This way you are less likely to get a bunch of faulty doa ones or worse ones that die immediately after the warranty is up.

Plenty of space and for a good price ( door buster deal ) can't beat that

I would recommend the WD storage device to anyone because how easy it is to use and the price was very reasonable.

Not much to say, it's a wd drive so its usually reliable. One of the main reasons to be buying this drive should be for archival purposes, don't be expecting ssd speeds here. I should elaborate, it's not a slow drive. Speed should be fine for most people's uses.

Really great way to add capacity without having to deal with opening the computer. Works great and having actual power adapter means you aren't working your power supply to death.

work fine. when i format for ps4 external storage, my computer doesnt recognize it when plug back into computer. but with a quick search online, i found out how to fix it with a little extra fiddling around. this is gonna last 20 years worth of storage, so i am happy.

Allows for FAST, easy and reliable backups. Works like a charm.

Great device and lots of storage. Very reliable drive in this package.
