    Works as it should. The older ones had Red hard drives not sure about the newer ones. I haven't opened it up yet to take a look, 11/3/22, but will report back later when I get it open.

    Does indeed come with a Red drive. Save $$$ over buying the bare drive and you have great and speedy storage. It is even faster than my 1TB 7200 RPM blue drive at 5400 RPM thanks to platter density.

    It was actually cheaper to buy this external drive than to just buy the 8tb WD Red drive. We needed the drive for our server. The external case will get another drive dropped in and still be of use.

    Very good quality external hard drive for the price. Very easy to use, setup, and begin transferring and storing data. Came with some junk on it that I had to remove so that wasn't so great. Otherwise, this is a fantastic external hard drive.

    I was hoping the hd was WD Red, but it was non colored, not sure if it’s the same. The product is quiet and has a fast transfer speed. Love the huge storage capacity, no more looking for other drive, everything is in one mass drive. Great price too. Only 4 star because it is not red drive inside per other reviewers.

    Both physically and memory, I love it. I hope it is around for a while? I leave it on separate surge protector so I can leave it turned off unless I need it. Works good, plus I don't worry about over heating.

    I trust the WD brand. No brainer for me when it's on sale. Everything is good so far, good speed, quiet, compatible with both Mac and Windows. Will see if the drive can withstand the test of time!
