    It was on sale and purchased it to use as a backup storage. Connected to the router. We usually turn it on when it's needed. Had been working fine. No issues.

    This drive is based on the red led nas drive so it is supposed to be more reliable for an always on system. And the speed has been good so far for my use. It's cheaper than buying the bare drive so buy now think later.

    So far this has been a great drive. I have not had it that long just about a month and there has been no issues. The price per size ratio is pretty good. I would say it is worth a buy.

    I have 2 other 4 TB easystore drives and was happy with them until I dropped one and damaged it. So this is a replacement. I figured more storage is better. So far so good on an iMac. Must reformat for Mac but it’s not too complicated a process. If you don’t want to reformat select the WD My Book.

    This hard drive teally helped my xbox one storage. It works great for extra storage. It is easy to move saved games to external hard drive too. If you get 8 tera you should be set with plenty of storage space.

    I use this on my Xbox One S since I only purchased the 500 Gb version. This gives me way more space than the 1TB version and I didn't pay much more for the Xbox One S and the 8TB hard drive versus the 1TB version.
