Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far Working good as spected, easy setup. Faster with Usb 3.0

Just plug in and it’s ready to go. Great for cord cutters

Good value... Works well as a backup and an external drive! Instructions could use a bit more clarification but if you know what you're doing, it's a solid product.

I have a few smaller 1 and 2 gig drives - this 8 Gig drive came available for a fantastic price at Best Buy and I am glad I purchased it. USB 3 is very fast and I doubt I will fill this drive up soon. Very satisfied.

I was looking for mass storage for a good price. Was about to build a NAS using bare drives. Saw the raving reviews and I bought these to use standalone and few for my NAS. All are working great, would highly recommend!

You can't go wrong with 8Tb. So much space, only problem is sometimes the drive is temperamental and you have to wait to wake up. But for the price, I'll deal with it

This is a fantastic value for an 8tb when on sale. The internals of the drive is very stable and reasonably fast. The drive is quiet and cool. 8TB is plenty of space. Basically everything one wants in an external drive.

These drives when identified properly with the model number can score you a WD red 8 TB with 256 MB of cache. It's a very good deal if you know how to shuck them properly. It took me < 5 min and I had a WD red NAS drive.

Huge capacity and fast speed are what this product offers and it delivers. I have no need for the software that it comes with, so I don’t know if it’s any good. The only question at this point is how long will it last.

Found it easy to setup, very intuitive. Has been reliable. Not unsightly. Does not overheat. Noise level low

Great product. Easy to connect and has great amount of storage.

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.)

This thing has tons of space ok so 8 Tb but it works great!!

Great product. Definately worth ever cent especially with all the power outages lately. Greatful to Best Buy for having product in stock at my local store.

Purchased this to expand my 1tb storage capabilities on my Xbox 1x. Once plugged in the xb1 quickly recognized it and instructions for formatting came up. I don't much delay in loading a game. It's quiet. Because it's a full size drive it requires to be plugged into an electric outlet on my surge protector. This is the main disadvantage for me in not going with a smaller portable drive. I knew this going into it and preferred the extra storage capacity on a full size. Very happy with this purchase

needed it because I had another 8 TB start to act stupid. So far this unit has worked flawless.

I purchased two of these and use one as backup for my computer and one for additional file storage. They work great and are a great value. Very simple to hookup.

It's a great HD with plenty of storage! Only weird part is running macOS 10.15.7 Catalina after a while the HD will just "can't create backup folder". Tried the "turn off power save mode" too. I just have to re-plug it in to make it work. So, besides that, it's fantastic.

I purchased this hard drive to use with my PS4. It works great. I like that it has its own power supply and that it was easy to set up and use. I would recommend this product to anyone looking to expand there memory.

Massive storage for people who need the extra space. The only issue is that it has to be plugged into a power source which isn't a huge issue but can still be irritating if you don't have enough outlets.
