Nice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a large drive I'm using to store DVR recordings from two different OTA devices and another for online content. I haven't had a single hiccup like I have had with smaller drives just running one of the three servers. I've only had it about two months, but cost and storage is enough to recommend it. I am just going on faith that it will prove to be reliable as well.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Usb

Good for backup storage
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good enough, it's no speed demon but seems work just fine . You pay for lower performance and you get it. There are 8TB drives out there that cost more then two times the cost of WD's Easy Store HDD.

Lots of storage with a slight annoyance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plenty of storage for keeping track of my RAW photos. I am going to have to move it further away from my workstation as it does have a very quiet and subtle ticking when it's idle. Tends to grab my attention when the rest of the room is quiet.
