Customer Ratings & Reviews

Super fast HD connected over USB3 to my router, great for media.

Worst experience and purchase ever! Used once to upload pictures and after that it stopped working. I’ve tried everything they recommended, At first, I even bought a new laptop thinking my old one had an outdated software and that was the problem. Now WD is not responsible for the data recovery I’ve to pay to certain companies designated by WD in order to claim the warranty on the external storage device. Here is the worst… data recovery estimates goes from 700 to 1,500 depending on the complexity could go even higher. I’m not only loosing what I spent on WD piece of garbage, I lost the data or I’ve to spend a great amount of money because their product don’t do what it’s meant to do!

I've had good success with WD Easystore products and this is no exception! Good purchase and value.

Previously had a 3TB drive same brand. Notice the 8TB on sale so I brought it. Highly recommended product!

So my review is a little biased as I got the 8tb on sale for a steal at $150 but even at retail this amount of storage is great value.

This is a huge storage unit that really responds quickly. I've used it as a place to store my audio recording projects which have very large files. And it was inexpensive enough to buy a second one so everything is backed up!

So far no complaints and has been working as expected. I've been using this for less than 1 month though.

Good storage capacity. Setup was simple, plug in power and USB to computer, computer recognized drive right away on windows 10 machine.

This large harddisk is the perfect product for it’s size. At Best Buy the price is unbeatable. 8TB nonteheless, a perfect deal.

I use this hard drive for backing up my video projects and various media. I've found it to be fast and reliable. Worth picking up!

Nice drive, Working as expected, if you have a larger library of movies/music/images this drive is what you should be looking for.

I needed a ton of space to backup family photos and videos. This drive is huge when it come to space and it was on sale. Great value!

Love this Storage Device it hold everything I need with plenty of Storage Space left for the Future. Great Value.

Great as an external hard drive for my Xbox, now I have plenty of space for my games and downloads.

Excellent value at $160. USB 3.0 and backward compatible. Have been very happy with past WD products. When on sale, grab this item.

I got a couple of theses when they were on sale for $159. They have WD Red series NAS drives inside. Those bare drives are $300 each.

These are great! They run very quietly. I have them configured for daily backups and storage for my libraries. No problems.

We actually use this in a business setting. We save digital xrays to it as a backup. Works great massive amount of space.

I bought this external drive cheaper than I could the internal drive. I bought two, clamshelled them and used them in a NAS.

This is really good and it has WD RED 8TB hard drive. I disassemble to take RED HDD but external hard drive itself is also good one.
