    This is a great disk for someone that needs more storage. And you can schuck the drive (take it out of the case and use it in your desktop if you need storage). Not sure how long these will be around - but worth getting.

    The WD Easystore is a great drive and it has WD Red 256GB Cache Drives inside, yet it costs less than buying these same exact drives bare.

    Need I say more? That's a lot of data. I've been using WD for a long time. Occasionally there have been issues. So far so good here.

    It took a while to transfer from my old external hard drive to this one but once it was done I had so much space left. I cleaned up my computer and transferred all pictures and documents and my computer runs so much faster now.

    Fast over a USB 3.0 connection, small footprint, whisper quiet. Pretty much everything I need in an 8 TB consumer grade external HDD.
