Works great, tons of space, just watch the temps
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.8TB, made sure to even get the red drive version. Not much more I can say except that the temps CAN get a bit high. And I'm talking 50c territory. I wouldn't recommend keeping it on for more than a couple hours at a time. Hope that helps those on the fence. Got it for 160.

Video Server
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have accumulated an extensive catalog of digital media and had it scattered across a minimum of 5 different hard drives. This is the perfect solution to consolidate it all in one place. With the advances in TV technologies, it is nice that it is portable and can plug directly into a USB port on the television and you can watch direct without having to go through a laptop and HDMI connection.

great 8 tb drive, service could have been better
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As part of the holiday sales my local best buy had a 8tb Drive on sale for ~$130. When I got there I searched and picked up a WD 8TB assuming it was the advertised Drive, but it wasn't. This one didn't come with free cloud storage as did the advertised one, and it cost $30 more. When I went to customer service to see if they could match the advertised price I was told that they couldn't, and wouldn't. I bought it anyway.

This is a great hard drive for the money.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this hard drive for backup purposes not to run day-to-day. I understand it's a green drive in the enclosure so I don't plan on running this every day. My intentions for this drive are two backup my computer system every month or so then store the drive off site.

So far so good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well, software is good, no complaints. Schedule is great and once the initial back up is done, scheduled ones are fast. FYI I was backing up about 5TB as the initial back up and it took about a day. From my understanding, that is normal for the amount I was backing up.

Does its job
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a workhorse. Using it as a video server for my Plex library.
