Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought it on sale the other week, works great, great price for the storage size. easy tp ise

Large amount of extra storage for files. Comes with tools to set it up, backup, and maintain.

Good value. In my experience, Western Digital hard drives are much more reliable than Seagate. I owned several of both and only Seagate ones failed repeatedly.

Great amount of storage for a great sale price. Can't go wrong when you need space for backups

Good product, great price. Very helpful staff. It wasn't in stock, but I bought it and they shipped it free.

As simple as it gets for external harddrives. Hopefully it lasts longer than other drives I've used before.

I recommend snatching these hard drives up any time they go on sale. Best Buy seems to regularly offer them at 25-50% off and makes them a steal. Reliable, fast (relative to other HDD), and large storage options. They run super quiet and cool and can be used as storage for any use.

massive storage space, easy to shuck and use as an internal drive. i just wish it was faster than 5400rpm

This is a good backup hard drive. It does run a little warm but that never created an issue.

This is very good value for money. I’m knocking one star off though because of noise on one of the units that I bought. I purchased 2 of these and have a Raspberry Pi doing an hourly rsync so that I have mirrored copies of my data. One of these drives is definitely louder than the other which brings questions of consistency in product. Other than that these are faultless so far.

Drive works well with my Windows 10 laptop. It will provide space for years to come.

It's an external drive. It's doing it's job. I do want to move it from the external case to internal.

Got it for a great deal and shucked it. Decent hard drive expansion

Practical and useful , good capacity , automatic back up a plus, good speed transfer rates

Great price for a solid external that has all the space I need for my gazillions of photos.

I've used this hard drive for just almost a month now and it been pretty much what I would expect. It's plug and play. It's been attached to my router which acts as a media server. Write speeds are pretty decent over my network (20-25 Mbps).

Really like the ability to store all of my pictures on one drive and be able to backup my computer.

I purchased 3 of these. One for myself and 2 for Christmas gifts. I have used mine and have found it easy to use. I have always depended WD products to cover my needs, so hopefully this will not disappoint as time goes on.

Needed to consolidate a number of old drives. For the price and WD reliability cant be beat.

I just bought this to shuck it. Before buying an internal drive, get on youtube and learn how to manipulate these to make an internal drive You'll save 50 dollars or more and get the same, sometimes even better quality drive.
