    I love WD hard drives and have been using them for nearly 15 years. In that time I had 1 drive fail and WD replaced it at no charge to me. I own 3 of these external HDD and couldn't be happier.

    Purchased this a couple of weeks ago. Works great and I used it to gather all the files I have on smaller externals onto one drive. I can also backup my current setup with plenty of space left over.

    Got this to backup all my photos and videos. Works like a charm! The space is great for me right now. I'm sure I'll need to upgrade in a couple of years, but so far so good!

    Been using this for the last 2 years as an archive drive. Just now about to fill it up. It’s been a pretty solid drive, worth the price.

    I used to drive for 4 weeks as an external drive. It has great read-write speeds and is relatively quiet. I ended up opening the drive and using the hard drive in my NAS as it is an 8tb Western Digital red Drive!

    I recommend this product but is best to use at home and not travel with it. If you do, just protect it and try and keep it as stable as possible while in transport. Tons of memory, frees up my computer.

    Picked up several of these hard drives when they were on sale for $149.99. Shucked them to use the bare drives in a Synology NAS. The drives have been humming along in the NAS just fine. Can't beat the price.
