Great drive at a great price
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great value for a drive - just what you need, no other gimmicks to get in the way of using it. Unlike the MyBook Series of drives, which have built-in hardware encryption that you can’t turn off (meaning if the drive case and usb board get messed up, your data is gone), the Easy Store drives don’t get in between you and your data - you can remove the drive from this case and use it in a different one (which I recommend because these cases seem to keep the drives at a way-to-hot-temperature) - ideally one with a fan for cooling.

Hardy unit performing nicely.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This my second unit and I use this to back-up my office information. The unit is well built and a bit heavy giving a good standing weight. Also, cosmetically has a slick look being a good addition to the office desk environment.

External hard drive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I need to have this for copies of my precious music collection. Just what I needed. There is just not enough storage and if something goes wrong with my other two external hard drives, I have this to back up all my collection.

Easy peasy!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plug, and play with my PS 4 pro. I don't like boxes, or disks hanging around. So now I download almost all my games. It looks nice, sitting in the background , waiting to do it's job. You do have to plug it into a pad port, so you sacrifice a player port. If you want you can purchase a multi usb port adapter. I have had no issues, even when I had lost power situations, or a cold boot. it checks itself, and goes back to work. No worries! Love it!

8TB is Nice . . . But I Will Need More Space!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Magnificent . . . I have two 4TB WD Drives, one 4TB WD Drive, and two 4TB Seagate Drives for Video and Audio Backups. Since it is a desktop HDD, it does require a power brick and will not run off the computer without it. I usually disconnect the drives and store in a cool dry place so I am (usually) not worried about electromagnetic damage from power surges or the like (also have UPS). 8TB is Nice . . . But I Will Need More Space! I will probably end up buying the 10 and 12 TB shortly depending on how I rotate the A/V across the drives.
