Customer Ratings & Reviews

I use Western Digital external drives to back up family pc's as well as cell phone pictures and video's. The USB 3.0 interface is very fast and with 8 TB of capacity you have lots of storage options. Best Buy consistently has the best pricing for this product, you can't go wrong!

Great product. Works as advertised. Use as my main backup drive.

Excellent I am enjying the way it is working and it met my needs

I use a pair of these as additional external backups for my RAID Array in my desktop media server. I get good transfer rates and have had much better experience with reliability than previous generations of external drives which seemed to develop bad sectors regularly.

I bought 2 of these and they had WD80EDAZ in them. Some people online saysthey run hot and is actually 7200rpm rather than 5400rpm.

Just love the plug and play!! Works great. I would not pay $300 any thing under 150 great price.

Was faster than my old hard drive which was a Seagate. I will be buying a WD again in the future

This 8tb drive is working perfect. Its set to back automatically.

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

Currently using this drive to automatically backup family photos/movies, and other important files. Heard about the dependability and bit on this drive for $159.99. So far so good!

These were really WD 8TB red drives for a great price. Very reliable and loads of storage.

I bought this same external hard drive 2 years ago and it worked flawlessly. So I bought it again. I've had on issue with this drive. No corrupted files of any kind. I highly recommend it for those who have a lot of videos to save.

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.

Bought this to store large files and backup my Mac. Dependable, easy to use, and decent write speeds. Does everything I ask of it and it does them well. Free software included that helps save power and life. Plus they are almost always on sale at Best Buy

easy to use and reliable and does the job! Good external hard drive!

After having tried another external drive that I simply could not get to work at all, I purchased this one after returning the first. This drive is easy to use, and makes large backups very quickly through a USB-3 port. I am very pleased with it.

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.

Mine had 8TB WD RED NAS drive in it. So far running perfectly. I highly recommend this product.

I mean it's a hard drive it works great I haven't had any problems it's not loud or anything works great 100% in my book and I got a good deal on it I got it on sale

I bought this external hard drive during an emergency when my laptop was beginning to fail and I wanted to back up my photos. This unit was plug n play and immediately backed up everything on my laptop. Plenty of room left to put on additional items.
