    I love this device- plugs in to a USB and allows me to copy my files from other discs I have my my big PC - I organized now by year, month, and day on this new drive. It is a copy of what I have, but better organized for protection and for uses to create new images and graphics

    Super price for a HUGE hard drive! Western Digital is and has been a solid brand that stands behind what they sell. I don't expect any problems but it is nice to know there will be someone there is issues arise.

    I purchased this external harddrive for my son for christmas this year because although we box the 1TB Xbox one it fills up quickly having to always download content from the games. Setting it up is easy and works great, my son loves he has so much room for more game storage now.

    This storage device works great especially for the PS4. It uses a usb slot but u can fit all of your games. I downloaded 80+ games and still got lots of room. The storage is amazing but u don’t have to buy the 8 TB, u can buy the 4 TB and still have your games downloaded

    Bought these on sale for about 200 bucks each, a great deal as they contain WD Red 8TB drives, which by their own go for much more! Just know that the manufacturer warranty on these is much shorter than on standalone drives.

    Bought this 8TB drive to keep up with the ever growing storage needed for gopro & drone video. Doubled my last hard drive & this drive seems faster transferring files to & from so really satisfied of course until this one fills up maybe a 16TB will be out by that time!

    I bought this hard drive so I could put more games on my PS4. This worked exactly how I wanted it. When I plug it into my PS4 it asked to format to the PS4 and I allowed it and I now have 16 games saved on my system and not even a TB of space is used.

    I bought it because the internal drive on my computer died and I as running on my backup. This drive became my new backup and has been running flawlessly. Waiting for the stay at home order to expire to get the internal drive replaced.
