    I have two of these, bought the second because the first is filled. Usb 3 make it way faster than usb 2. I ended up reformatting it for linux (ext4) but it comes ready for windows

    This offers a great deal of storage at a wonderful price point. I've purchased two and use them in addition to my pc to store files such as photos and have the second as a backup.

    nas level drive without the nas level price. Right now I'm using it as an external storage, but nice to know I can break it open and re-purpose it for a nas. Sale price was excellent.

    I always trust Western Digital for all my storage needs. This product is the best hard drive I have ever owned. Fast and quiet, and doesn't run hot at all. I trust it to last for ten years at least.

    Plenty of storage space and is actually rather quiet when its in operation.. Kind of a cheap plastic case for the drive though, it doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. But its easy to just plug in and let it do its job.

    When this goes on sale, it's a steal. I got it for $160 although it's been lower. Mine happened to have a WD red NAS drive inside with 256mb cache! Very happy w the performance.

    It was a great deal for the price. I also read online that they use WD Red drives which a great for NAS systems and can easliy be extravted from its case if desired to do so.

    A great 8TB external drive for my video projects. It's easy to set up and I have not had any problems with Western Digital drives so I keep buying them.
