    Western Digital makes some of the best hard drives. What more is there to say? Works great and should be reliable since it is made by WD.

    This is a good, solid drive if you are looking to store basic media. It's not very fast though so I wouldn't use it for content creation. It is also well built, and fairly quiet.
