Works as a basic external disk for Windows & Linux
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice having a big easy to use external drive where I can copy over all my files. Not using the WD backup software and don't really plan to. Not a drive I keep connected all the time, just when copying my media and other files. Easy to plug and play movies through my TV too.

Good economical mass storage
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was rapidly running out of storage for photos and videos, and purchased this WD 8GB external HDD when it went on sale. Very easy to set up and use with Windows 10. Not the fastest drive in the world, but good for storage of less frequently used files.

pretty great value
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have now bought two for use in Unraid (one as parity). Both were white label drives. They've performed flawlessly up to now. Depending whether they're on sale, probably the best price per TB of any drive of its size. Will probably buy more of them.

Great Drive!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was able to shuck the drive out of the cash and use it in my NAS with no issues. Shucking the first one takes a while to get used to after that, it became like clockwork knowing where the notches are.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Storage capacity
Excellent
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great deal when discounted as compared to just bare bones 8TB drives, especially for a NAS! If you chuck the case and pull the drive out you will need a 4-pin molex to SATA power adapter for the drive to start up properly.
