Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very confident that all my files are secure with this hard drive. Drive is perfect for everything including your games on consoles/pc

Great hard drive with CRAZY amount of space. Bought for work and I could imagine this thing taking years to fill with documents and videos.

Western Digital provides a quality external storage device that is easy to use and provides a lot of capacity to store all the digital pictures, movies, music and other files we want to backup and access.

Replacement drive for one I purchased in Jan 2020. The previous drive failed in just over two years. Drives made in the mid 2000s used to last about 5 years.

I have a ton of concert videos and home photos that was killing my memory. This was a steal on sale and works like a charm!

Simple to set up, formatting is a breeze (using on Mac); plenty of capacity as a media drive/backup solution.

WD has always been a good product for me. This is no exception. Loaded with space, very fast, and at a fantastic price.

This device is good for storing massive data. I tried to use it for a backup for my movies and documents. However, it is very noisy and constantly writing something even though I am done copying file hours ago. If this item suits your needs, I would say go for it.

Great storage for photos and music!!! easy to use and not to bulky!

I bought this product last month! Really good price in best buy! awesome! good product! this item has a red WD hard! good!

Great little self contained hard drive. Very quiet and hopefully lasts for a long time.

I bought one about a year ago to use in my Plex server for storing media. After copying my files onto the external drive, I ended up shucking the internal drive and installing it into my machine directly. It's been running so well since then, I picked up another one a month or so ago again. Been a Western Digital user for over 20 years now, and they all have not let me down. It's not as fast as the 7200rpm drives, but is perfect for a high capacity storage drive!

It's 8TB, it's Western Digital and at a great price. No issues so far. This is my 3rd drive and all is good.

Great external hard drives, plug and play. they last forever. i suggest to check disk for errors and i reformat the drives at first as i had some problems with some of the other hard drives by not doing that. i have about 12 +- WD external Drives they are great. i stor everthing on them movies, pictures docs, music to save room off my pc hard drives and my other pcs laptops ssd drives.

Bought this to use on my PS4 and it works amazing. Had no problems with connecting and enjoying.

So I purchase this as I have the same problem I suspect everyone does with having media on multiple drives, and not sorted well. I setup OpenMediaVault on my Raspberry Pi 3 and attached this Hard drive to it via USB. So far no complaints as the Pi 3 is the limiting factor with speed. I get about 11 mbs since the Pi 3 internal NIC is only 100mbs. Drive works great as it's been about a month or so since it's been powered off and I'm impressed for the price I paid you can't get more storage.

Easy to Plug in and immediately begin to back up files

These are great for shucking and using in a NAS, which is what I do with them. I have been using WD Easystore drives for many years with no issues.

With how big games are getting and libraries being very digital as well. This is extremely recommended for Xbox one and as well as X users with HDR patches!

8 TB is exactly what I needed not too much not too little good price at 139. Around 2019 I bought one for 159 still a good deal. Even when not on sale. Comes with software on the website such as recovery data and power options. Haven't really messed with them but I seen them there. There's a couple of reviews on YouTube that are good to watch.
