Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased two of these. One is always connected to may computer and the other has a backup of the same files. Sometimes I connect the other one to my other media devices to play music and videos. For the price it's a massive amount of storage. It's not super fast compared to ssd and can be a be a bit loud sometimes, but I'd still recommended for backup of media, such as photos, videos, music, etc.

Lots of storage for my laptop and reasonably priced.

A fast and quiet drive with plenty of space. What’s not to love? Highly recommend.

These drives have great performance to price ratio.

I’ve needed this device for quite some time. It’s very easy to set up. Love it.

Reliable hard drive for storage. I didn't need any high speeds but wanted a drive for storage for my gaming console. It works perfectly for that so I'd recommend picking one up if you need it and don't care that it requires power and is a little larger.

Added this 8tb bad boy to my PS4 hard drive so I wouldn't have to delete and (re)download games onto the main hard drive or a smaller one. Won't be as fast as the SSD I put in the system, but good for the extra games I don't play as often.

Love this so much space,it's so easy to hook up also

does just what it's supposed to do, which is hardly surprising for a WD product, given their long history of qualtiy

Needed a quick easy back up storage device and this one fits the bill perfect. Easy to set up and runs on schedule.

Easy to connect and get started. I like these drives because they can be taken out of the container and put inside the computer without losing the format.

I needed a boost and I have to say this is really good if you are using it for video games. Really well constructed.

Great as always! Looking forward to lower prices and larger sizes.

I purchased this item on sale to add to a backup server. So far, the product has worked as advertised.

Husband loves this gift. He is putting everything he has important on it.

This drive is definitely sizable. I have purchased many of these and so far, so good. If you plan on shucking these, keep in mind the drives probably are sata v 3.3 which means if your power supply is not 3.3 compliant, you will have to use a molex to sata power adapter. I found out the hard way.

A great backup device that you will need, just in case

This drive has been up and running since I bought it around 7 months ago with no problems at all. Wish I would have bought a couple since the cost of the guys fluctuates quite offend. When it goes back down to what I paid for it last, or cheaper I hope, I'll pick up a couple of more to put in my NAD.

I use this for a backup of my laptop files . Unit is fast and responsive.

I keep it under my pillow at night, the soothing hum sings me to sleep.
