Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've had my eye on a sale on 2 external hard drives for months. At the price best Buy offered this 8 terabyte external hard drive for $ 123.00 I had to have 2. Very quiet hard drive. Sturdy. 3.0 usb drive. Great looking. Came packaged perfectly. Looks great. I'm extremely happy with my purchases. Arrived in two days. Highly recommended. I don 't think you'll be disappointed.

Needed it to organize photo and video files for our business. Works like a charm!

Wanted to add some space on top of my Xbox one x and didn't want to take my other 2tb hard drive from my other xbox and this one works great. No issues with it at all so far

I'm using this to store downloaded files to save space on my computer. So far, so good. No problems with retreval.

No complaints especially for the price. Using it as media storage on a mini-pc. Pretty fast

This is a decent hard drive for the price. Easy to use. Don’t drop it.

I've bought a few of these lately and they are rock solid. It's a fast drive and so far has been very reliable.

If you want the fastest, most reliable 8tb storage option available today, this is your drive. The fact that it is the cheapest is just a bonus! How often does THAT happen?

The WD EasyStore 8TB external hard drive is a must for anyone with any kind of computer. Most hard drives on desktop and laptops have a max capacity of 1-2 TB. With the Easystore, backing up data is a breeze, recalling files is simple, and clearing out a hard drive that is near capacity will increase the efficiency of the computer itself.

I currently have this item with 1TB of storage. I have had no problems with my current one. I have connected this 8TB device without issue. Great DOORBUSTER item and price!

Just fit the bill. Had a 4TB drive and was running out of space. Always trusted WD for my drives.

This is the best External HDD I have ever bought! Couldn’t beat the price anywhere!

Purchased this item during a sale, which makes the price per GB a great deal. I wanted to store my videos and be able to watch it on my phone. However, a NAS is required for this. I noticed that my router allows one to plugin a USB device and share the contents of that USB on the network. I had this item purchased before I checked if this was compatible w/ the router. And I was disappointed that it wasn't, and online sources say that the router only supports up to 3TB at most. Yet I was hopeful, so I transferred one file onto the hard drive and plugged it in on the router, and it worked! I was able to watch the video through the router! My TV, my phone, my other computer, all of them can access the external hard drive now. (W/ a big performance hit, though nothing to be surprised as the router isn't supposed to replace a NAS anyway) Overall, am really happy w/ the purchase, hopefully it'll last long while plugged in on the router.

It was purchased to replace the husband's drive that failed. So far it's working great.

Great hard drive, easy to use, easy to set up. We use this as a back for our backup, and at 8tb, it should last us a while.

This 8tb external has great quality and holds a ton of pictures, videos, and movies.

Bought this on sale at $179, a few days later they had a similar model on sale at $129, which naturally sold out, so I am stuck with this one, but I'm still happy with it.

Very good product. Good value. Highly recommend for backup and recovery.

Best part was it was easy to set up and start using. Next it has a ton of storage so that is a huge plus. I don’t notice much of a difference in speed though from usb 3 to my 3 port. Seems about average in speed. Would recommend this product for the average home user like myself.

I bought this and a 4 port USB hub for my son's playstation, with this he should no longer eat up the 1TB of internet we get with cox from being out of storage on his 500gb playstation and deleting games and reinstalling games to play with his friends, some of these games are well over 100 GBs and you will find yourself having to pay overage with your internet service provider, only thing I wish is that I could plug the hub in his playstation then plug this hard drive into the hub, but I can't do that, the playstation says the external hard drive has to be plugged directly into the playstations usb, it's no big deal since I have the hub also, if you're going to buy this for your child specifically for their playstation I would 100% recommend buying a 4 port USB hub also to use to charge controllers, heads sets, cell phones, cause after plugging in the hard drive they will only have 1 USB left on the playstation to charge up stuff, the $30 4 port USB hub I also bought from bestbuy plugs into the wall so its hot all the time, you can charge up everything even with the playstation turned off, they have cheaper ones that don't have outlets and are only hot when the playstation is powered on.
