    Love this external hard drive. Our hobby is outdoor photography and storage is a must. Really great to finally have a large - 8T - storage drive that is reasonably priced and very easy to install & use. It can be used as primary storage or a great backup storage space. As everyone knows -- BACKUP your files! And this size makes it easy.

    Easy to use and it seems to be working great. I don't use the auto backup but transfer video files from another hard drive is doing great.

    These external drives contain Western Digital Red hard drives. They may have white labels but they are Reds inside where it counts. What's good about that? They are made to last, run very cool and have a huge amount of storage. This is a much more cost effective way to purchase storage than to buy bare hard drives. Great value for the money.

    This was easy to set up and a good value for the amount of storage. I’m using it for Xbox game storage. Will take me years to use it all.

    Pros: Price - especially when on sale. The drive is quiet, compact, quick, and is a robust 5400rpm WD He10 8TB drive - WDC WD80EMAZ-00WJTA0 This drive is very quick - benchmarked on Mac from 1st TB to last (made 8 partitions) with Disk Speed Test 190/170MB/s Read/Write for first partition to 110/110MB/s for last partition. Nits: Drive spins down after inactivity and takes a second or two to spin back up. No power switch. Lastly wish the enclosure had a fan for cooling.
