    I needed to expand my backup storage, these 8tb WD drives were ideal. Never imagined hard drive prices as low as $20 a TERABYTE?

    Decent back up drive based on $ per TB when on sale. I would not use this drive for any other purpose as it's quite loud when writing data and not all that fast. The enclosure is plastic. A USB 3.0 cable is included.
