Customer Ratings & Reviews

Plug and play ready to store your stuff. WD stuff has been dependable to me, haven't had one fail yet and have been using for years, this one is a little noisy though.

I've been running this for a few months now, and all is good. No issues out of the box. Connects easily to my PC. Time will tell how it holds up, but so far no complaints.

Now I can download all my classic flix and not worry about running out of room. I really needed the storage space.

Why spend money on another monthly fee for more and more cloud space when this is a one and done solution.

I have multiple WD external HDDs and am very satisfied with the products. As a rule, I only but WD drives for internal and external use. This drive is high quality, well built and stays in line with WDs proven track record of quality and reliability.

Needed additional storage for pictures and files - this external drive is perfect. So easy to use. Literally plug and play and drag and drop. Super simple.... I have used this on multiple PC's.

I'm one of those people who does a ton of research about a product before I buy it. I do a lot of video editing with 4K footage and photography so needed a fast and reliable unit at a good price point. This product offers all of that. Can't beat it.

Great item and vakue. I feel always very good when this tyoe is purchased

Great hard drive! I highly recommend this ~ easy set up!

I wouldn't consider myself a power user but I just needed a large capacity hard drive to store movies and this fit the bill. With media going 4k, files are larger than ever so to get 8tb for $160 is an incredible bargain. I've spent a considerable amount of time modifying my home theater setup so every component is as quiet as possible. Who wants to hear equipment whirling while watching movies? This hard drive is dead silent and barely gets hot even after prolonged use. I am considering buying another...one thing you can't have enough of is hard drive space.

Very reliable. Works well with intensive read write tasks and on all the time. Much better than Seagate (which failed quickly) and other alternatives such as USB enclosures. Recommended!

Great product, easy to install. With excellent support from manufacturer , if needed

Pretty nice HDD for the price, easy setup and easy to use

Second one I bought, since the first was excellent. Have had no issues after a year with the first one. Great price and performance. I believe this is the best drive you can get at this price.

I use Kodi for my home video and music library and have bought 2 of these. Previously, I've owned many WD external drives. They are solid! Dependable and affordable.

Works perfect for my PS4. My system was really bogged down because of all the data I had.. This obviously helped clear a lot of space up and I noticed that my system runs a lot better now too.

This was purchased to save on iCloud expansion costs. It is super easy to use and portable. Highly recommend it.

A very nice drive. Not to big in physical size and great storage capacity.

for storage of files, these are good. nowhere near as fast as SSD, but from what I hear, SSD are not good for archiving files so these are the best bet for holding onto files locally.

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