    Fast storage for a good price. Unless you get an SSD , this is one of the best you can get without breaking the bank

    Working great, and got it when it was on sale! If you need speed, grab an external ssd. This is great cheap storage.

    It's pretty hard not to give a 5 stars. It does what is advertised. Plug it in and play. In case you had concerns, it will require the external power supply. This is a full sized HDD and USB power isn't enough. Real life usable space isn't 8TB, but it's more than enough for the average consumer. If it's on sale, pick one up, back up everything, and forget about it.

    So in truth, this is actually a pretty moderate amount of extra/backup storage compared to the 10+ TB sizes that are more standard these days. But the pricepoint was good when I picked this up, and they shuck easily enough for the hard drive to be put into a small home server setup. Get a few of them for RAID and you're good to go!
