    I used this drive to copy my internal hard drive (5TB) before I replaced it with a larger drive (10TB) and the transfer software worked like a dream both downloading and uploading to my new drive. Would recommend it for this purpose but not as an external drive.. Too Slow for daily use.

    I've only owned the external drive for 2 months, but so far moving files with ease and plenty of storage that I'll be using this for a long time.

    I had ordered a 2 TB internal drive from Dell and the virus hit so they couldn't deliver. I canceled that order and found this 8TB external drive at Best Buy for less money. Boy am I glad I did. Everything I needed came with it and I was up and running in seconds. It is quiet and fast and just sits out of the way and does its job. I highly recommend this drive.

    I use this as a back up, not as a primary storage device. The drive is nice and works well, but I couldn't get the backup software to work. It was upgrading from an older version of HP software and I haven't been able to get it to work right since the initial installation/upgrade failed. But the drive works fine, looks good, and provides plenty of storage.
