Exchange process at Best Buy
||Posted .

Perfect for Plex
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have an 8TB red inside. I use it for a plex server on my Shield TV. It sits on a TV console about 10 feet away so it's inaudible for me even when the room is quiet. Doesn't seem to get hot either. When it's on sale it's a no brainer. Bare WD Reds are expensive alone at this capacity, so this is a steal at 160

Perfect external drive for the price

8TB!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow! This is 8TB! Great amount of space for many moons to come. Had to reformat it to run on my Mac, but the procedure wasn’t difficult or time consuming. Ordering and pick-up-at-store was quick and easy. Think I will buy another. Can’t have too much storage space.

Good price for 8TB of storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Paid $128 for 8TB of external storage which I consider a good deal. I have a similar drive and I use this drive to backup that drive (in addition I backup to the cloud). Since I use this drive as a backup to a backup, I'm not very concerned about transfer speed though the USB 3.0 works very well.
