Large Capacity for a good price. I am using this device to create full backups to be stored away from home as a disaster backup. It is doing its job

It was what I was looking for & in stock. It had been a sale day so I was lucky to have it availa le.

I can store so many music files in this drive, however, I use it to store 8K pictures of various restaurant appetizers, most of the drive is filled with mozzy sticks. If you need any recipes, find them in recipe books!

I bought this drive when it came on sale giving it a low price per storage unit. I used it to create a private cloud and it works just fine for that purpose where a large capacity but not high speed is required. I am not implying here that the drive is slow, just that there are faster drives out there but their speed would not make a difference in my application.

There hasn't been a single problem with it. I didn't use any preinstalled programs before reformatting it, but for anyone looking for something for their PS4, this works great. Though, since it uses its own cable, you won't be able to just simply get a longer one, so keep it close to the system.

Very reliable product for extra storage or running it on your server.

I like that it has 8 TB for a full backups of several of our systems but it makes a lot of noise and sounds clunking in the background while it's reading/writing. Not sure if this is normal. Our other WD products are quiet. Have to dismount it from auto backup because it is so noisy and loud. Then re-engage when needed. Not ideal since remembering to do so could be overlooked.

The performance aligns with expected standards, enabling the efficient backup of a variety of files, including videos and photographs from main computers. Nevertheless, the transfer speed from the easystore unit to other computers is relatively slow, akin to that of numerous external hard drives. In summary, I would confidently recommend this product to my business colleagues.

[Employee of bestbuy] Great storage and fast speeds. I’ve never owned this brand before and setting up the program was a little annoying but easy overall.

8Tb is huge and usb 3.0 makes this a great addition to my XBox One!

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.

The HDD contained (at least in my unit) was a WD Red which I have been using for years in other applications without issue. This backup has been on constant cycle for about six months now without any hiccups or issues. It runs as cool as I would have expected. I have no reservations about the drive or its reliability based on past performance of WD products.

Excellent hard drive to store music and many other things. Great storage.

Got room for everything now, this is easy to set up and very quier.

WD easystore is doing as advertised making saving 8k photos and everything else easy. I bought a generic ext. HDD online and still cannot access the drive w/ valuable data on it for no reason other than it was a Monday I guess? I never save to the cloud because you never own your own stuff...they charge storage money don't they and if you do not pay they cut off access don't they? Rates will always go up, never down so...Maintain ownership via via HDD then in future when external SSD storage becomes affordable simply copy files over to the new.

Works great,backs up all my music,total of over 300,000 songs

Easy to use and abundance of storage for videos, data and pictures

Had this a while and it works great. Saved us from a crashing drive and holds a lot more. No hiccups with this device.

So far, so good. I've only begun moving pics from my saved pages to the external hard drive. No issues thus far.

WD Ultrastar inside. Cheapest way right now to get an ultrastar drive.
