    A great value when it is on sale. I consolidated several older, smaller hard drives onto this one.

    Aside from ONE thing I really hate about most cheap drives, no on off power button, this is a fine external drive. It's not too loud, it's actually quite fast! I'm getting over 200Mbs (or is it MBs? I forget). That's quite fast for a cheap 7200 spinning drive. My other drives max out around 100. I was pleasantly surprised. I can edit video off of this pretty easily. So bottom line, 8TB is insane, but the drive is fine.
