Great backup, or just as an extra data drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my third 8th Easystore from Western Digital. All 3 are in use as backup drives for a NAS and 2 computers. This is a great, quiet drive. Although it really wasn't necessary, I did reformat one of the drives which was easy and quick, and went off without a hitch. It is a relief knowing that the data I have is secure, and if something does go wrong, I have a copy of everything I need. Can't say it enough: Back it up! Back it up! and in case I wasn't very clear, Back It Up!

Great on PS4 Pro
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have this connected to my PS4 pro. It works great. Definitely holds a lot of games. Bought this due to my 4TB, that is also connected to my PS4 pro, getting full. Another good thing about this is that it powers down when the PS4 pro powers down. That is a plus for me. My Xbox One doesn't due that. Games do load a little faster on the external thru USB3 than the way I have a 4TB internal connected to the SATA3.

Works Great as an External Nas with my Pi 3
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
I would recommend this to a friend A perfect storage solution for a reasonable budget
