Customer Ratings & Reviews

BB has lowered this drive's price on 20 days of doorbuster cheaper than BF and this was the lowest price so far $139.99. Love it. You can use immediately out of the box if you are Windows users, The drive includes the apps for you to check bad sector, S.M.A.R.T, etc... (you can download on WD website anyway). Rumor and confirm that inside is RED with 256mb cache, great price if you plan to buy multiple drive for your NAS.

very good product for the value, use everyday. It is important for my business

Great product. Easy to set up and very quiet. Very fast transfer rate. Really great deal and very happy with purchase.

Its a nice add for storage to my computer. We really needed the space and its helped w the variety of games I have.

Exactly what I needed to store pics and videos. Works great.

easy setup for backing up data on my NAS. Works just like it should.

So far has done everything it's supposed to do. Nice size, quiet.

I bought this to use as a media server. So far it has worked flawlessly. The price is excellent for 8T and though I'm not sure it is a "red" drive...it seems fast, reliable, and suitable for my needs.

This is my second storage device ( First One was a 4 TB). Massive storage for the money ( Black Friday Special). Its efficient, quite and easy to work with.

Very happy with my purchase of this external hard drive. Was very easy to transfer all of my pictures and documents from my old desktop to the hard drive.

This is a great drive, which I use to backup my NAS server. It doesn't appear to run hot for me, but that may be because it's only doing incremental backup. All in all, I'm very happy with the purchase.

If you want tons of space to save things like pictures, video games, tv shows, movies....etc.....etc.....this is something for you. With that many TB this will go a long ways.

The surprise hidden inside each of these high capacity external drives is apparently a Western Digital Red NAS-rated hard drive. These are designed for long life and high reliability. While not ultra-high speed, they are more than enough for USB 3.0. An excellent value.

Easy setup (plug and play). Fast USB 3.0 transfer protocol supported. Automatic backup software seamlessly integrates with Windows 10, 8.1, or 7; downloadable NTFS driver to support macOS. Ample storage space for any application.

Never fails me! This is my fifth hard drive and they all perform brilliantly!

Needed a larger external hard drive and this seemed a good deal for the amount of storage for the price.

Another name brand product stopped working. It cost almost twice as much as the original product to recover the data. My original Western Digital, external hard drive is still working after buying it years ago! I am happy with WD reliability and recommend their products.

What can I say it’s an external hard drive. Works as expected and high-capacity is excellent. At the time of purchase this was the best bang for the buck. I have had no issues yet and I’m happy with it

I’m not the most up to date and tech savvy, but I use this to store my movies and video game roms with zero issues. Cheaper quality ones would always crash and leave my data corrupted, well I purposely cut this off mid use a few times and the thing is bulletproof (not physically and shouldn’t of had to say that.)

I have a 3TB WD external drive, but needed more space. Couldn't believe the value I received on this drive. Plug and play, and everything works smoothly.
