Great price runs really need I really like it a lot

I bought these based on may reports that theses actually contain NAS Red drives. and DriveDX on my iMac confirms this. The Made in Thailand ones are the preferred one as they contain 256MB Cache vs the Made in China ones that come with 128 MB. This really makes little no difference with occasional small file transfers but will improve transfer times if you are moving a lot of files at once. These drives do make a slight "click" sound every 5-6 seconds and that's been confirmed to be normal.

I have an extensive music collection covering the 50's through the 90's and the music files (especially .wav files when converted) require quite a lot of space. this is my 4th Western Digital (WD) 8 TB drive. Although I believe it's actually TWO 4 TB' drives within a single external drive box), I find that the USB 3speed certainly keeps up with NERO software when copying and I have very few CD failures. In closing, I would not have bought the previous THREE drives if I did not believe in and trust the quality. No one likes to LOSE files accumulated for their hobby !! It dawned on my that I had better state clearly that all the previous 3 WD drives purchased STILL WORK - I just needed more space as my collection grew !!

8TB!!! I have a smaller external hard drive. But, I really wanted the extra 4TB. I'd like it even more if it was smaller.

as described in title, also no 3.3 v reset issues.

It's a pretty self explanatory item. Large capacity at 8 TB, easy to connect, easy to install, easy to use, and most of all, FAST. Plus, very affordable. I am thoroughly pleased with this purchase.

Well priced great value would buy again thanks!!!!

This is s great item to have. No problems Sat all.

Great drive fast reliable drive. I have used several of these highly recommended.

These drives are great stand alone for back up of files. They are also great for tossing a few of these into a NAS box. I have not had any issues with these and am waiting for them to go on sale again to pick up 2 more. They make 10 and 12 TB sizes now so the 8TB is beginning to become the sweet spot for storage drives.

These drives work well for whole house PC backups.

I always trust my external hard drives to be WD...

I haven’t used it yet but have seen so many positive reviews everywhere. The price was excellent so I am very satisfied!

Good performance out of the box. So far the drive is working as expected and the price was lowest I have seen in awhile.

Kinda big but its alot of storage, used for Xbox1 and lost almost a full tb with the "extra" stuff Microsoft puts on it

Great product. Even allows you to download documents direct from google docs, however I wish you could do the same from google photos or other services like mydrive

I needed this for a quick backup for a server, 8TB over USB was too slow even with USB 3, but the case pops right open and then I was able to connect the drive to a SATA controller on the machine and backup at SATA speeds. Then just as easily popped the drive back in the case. Decent drive, decent case, fair price.

I had bought this product about a year ago and was so impressed, I bought another one. I edit a lot of photos and videos in 4k. This hard drive keeps up and you can't beat the price point.

Ordered three 8TB easystores. Ran SeaTools full surface scans out of the box with no errors. Filled drives with random video, re-scanned, and again seatools came back with no errors. Solid drives so far.

Bought this hard drive as a backup for my system. I've had it for half a year now and I have no complaints. If you get this at a sale price which Best Buy sometimes has, this is a steel.
