Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

Have had these for years and they are still working like day one. This product is amazing for long term storage of media files or precious family memories

Just Plug and play. Very easy install. Big space. Will hold tons of pictures.

It was more than what I was needing at the time but it's always better to have more room than not enough for extra/back up storage space.

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

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

Very clean Very quiet Appropriate speed Easy interface affordable price

works great for my needs. easy to setup an transferring files was a breeze.

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.

Performs well as a backup drive. Easy to setup and easy to move to other servers as required.

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.

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!

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.

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

Now I can save all my pictures and videos and share it to everybody at home, great hard drive

This product is easy to set up and use. Everything functions as it should. Very fast when using USB 3.0.

Tons of storage packed in a little package. I love the design and it sits perfectly on my desk. I use these external Hard Drives for game systems and Computer systems with ease. Some systems may take a bit of formatting. Not noisy like some other external HDDs

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

I needed this drive for a project (a large scale database) where the drive would take quite a thrashing, continually being read and written to over the course of several days. Not only was the price right, but I normally use enterprise grade drives and I have to say, I was surprised at how well this drive managed. It managed not to get hot at all, despite the load I as subjecting it to. I've had other drives that got so hot, that they would actually burn to the touch! If your intent is to use this for the home to store movies, perform backups, or what ever occasional needs large storage needs you might have, you really can't go wrong with this drive. If you need something for work that will see moderate to heavy use, you should consider this drive as I can assure you very few applications will subject it to the load I put mine through.

Great for in-house archives, got it for old photographs, and stuff I don't want to keep in my to-go computer. great value for the price.
