Love this Great size connects well and good bang for the buck

works well, no issues great storage space. speed of product good,

Super simple to use, quiet and very portable. Solid construction.

I just received this and did a back-up of my computer so I haven't had it long. So far, so good.

This was easy to set up and begin use. Everything as stated in the description has worked great.

good for what I need and the price was ok. might get another one

These are pretty inexpensive any more. The world is moving to SSD (Like me) but this is 8TB and if I wanted that in an SSD I would need a 3rd mortgage. I have 4 of these and I use them for storage. Not for constant real time access. They can be attached and always "on", but if you don't do a file access for a few minutes the platters stop spinning and it takes ~15 seconds to "wake up." That is FOREVER so I avoid it. That Sleeping may also be the software controls on my computer rather than the drive itself, but it is still a real time lag. There are work arounds (batch files etc) to keep your drive "live", but they would seem to tax the turn tables. So, I often copy the section I am working with to a local SSD drive, make my edits and then save back to this kind of spinning disc archive.

I purchased this drive after filling up my 4TB external drive storage for PS4. Since PS4 only reads one external drive at a time it took me 4 days to completely transfer all files to this external drive. So far there hasn't been any issue with it. I also have a 10Tb and a 6TB hard drive for Xbox One of the same brand. I definitely recommend these drives for console storage. I've also experienced weather power outages a few times and these hard drives didn't fry or become unreadable for improperly shutting down. Good value when you catch them on sale.

Tons of external space at a great price. Works fine so far.

This 8TB is what I needed for me backing up my files.

This product is great for what I need it for. It's so easy to transfer music over to this item.

This product is awesome. You can shuck it for a NAS or use it as is, which either way is great!

Very Easy to use and install. We don't lose time. I recommend

Easy to set up and use. I like the speed at which it operates.

It's quick and fast and it holds a lot of movies. It rocks

Good to see this workhorse at such a great price. Working well and hoping it lasts a long time.

What else can I say? 8TB right out of the box for $140. I got 2 so they can backup each other.

Purchased this external hard drive to expand storage capabilities on an Xbox One. Plugged the drive in to Xbox USB 3.0 port, followed the prompt to format the drive to store game data, and was ready to go. It was easy to move existing game data from the internal drive.

Bought this to use on my PS4 works likes a charm. No longer have to delete games to make room.

Bought this for my Xbox One & it has performed well. It was a plug & play right into the Xbox.
