    Noisy hard drive

    The storage space is huge. But it is very noisy once you start it or use it for Time Machine backup. I always eject the hard drive immediately after use, so I can have a quiet room.

    Good drives for shucking. A more affordable way to get a NAS-class HDD.

    Solid design with own power supply. Useful for videos, movies, music, and other kinds of backups. Not the smallest but do no plan on dragging around to other locations.

    I got in during a sale and it looks like its worth the price. These are rated to run at slower speeds for long connectivity.

    Works well, although I think it makes the computer lag a bit if it's kept plug in. I usually keep in unplug when not in use

    These WD are famous for being "shuckable" -- I ended up with some good drives to use. They have been solid so far.

    It has a nice build quality on it, i can't say how good the drive is as I've been too lazy to transfer my files over to it but at least i opened the box up and powered it on and that worked as expected. Score!
