Customer Ratings & Reviews

Needed more storage and this fit the bill at the right price

This product was easy to set up and has a large storage capacity.

Great Hard Drive Lots of storage for a very reasonable price

It is more like 4.5 stars, due to the software, but I'm rounding up due to quality, value, and many years of great Western Digital drives. I love the drive, enclosure, and build quality. I have three internal Western Digital Drives (1TB and 2 4TB) and two older external Western Digital Drives (1.5TB and 2 TB) and have never had an issue with any of them

So far it has been a good buy and works well, i had a nas drive fail and had to use this as a backup

I haven't had any issues with the product. The data transfer rate is standard and what you would expect with the "Blue" WD rating. I use this drive with multimedia and had no issues. In the past WD was always reliable. I have tried other drive manufacturers and find myself coming back to WD. I did not have any reason to penalize stars with this drive.

Setup went smooth, tons of space. Runs quiet. Great value

setup was easy. large storage to accommodate all my backups.

These external drives contain Western Digital Red hard drives. They may have white labels but they are Reds inside where it counts. What's good about that? They are made to last, run very cool and have a huge amount of storage. This is a much more cost effective way to purchase storage than to buy bare hard drives. Great value for the money.

For the sale price, this was too good of a value to pass up. Simple design, and the product works mostly as expected. The setup/formatting on my iMac was problematic as disk utility repeatedly threw errors. But I was eventually able to format the drive by restoring it from the clone of another drive. Can be noisy, and has to be ejected and reconnected from time to time because programs are unable to find locations on the drive.

With 8TB of storage, it should be enough for my need. At this price it is also reasonable to get a pair of drives and make a mirror of your data

I've got a few of these, and couldn't be happier! They run fast, quiet, and cool...keeping in mind they aren't high speed 7200RMP drives.

This a great deal for a 8TB DRIVE. Quick and easy to set up

8TB holds a lot of photos. Works as advertised. Good product

Awsome hard drive easy set up great and smooth perfomance

The Summary says it all. Moreover, you can take these out of the housings and use them as internal drives. We've bought several of them.

It works good so far. Hopefully I didn't get a dud that dies right after the warranty ends.

The internal drive (WD Red 256 cache) was utilized in upgrading TiVo Bolt to ~ 1480 HD hours. I selected drive manufactured in Thailand.

I needed more room and works quietly. I love it..

Easily setup as backup drive for laptop. Quiet and works quickly.
