WD are the Best
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like WD. Very reliable. Occasionally I have had one or two stop working after a power bump; BUT found that if you carefully open the case, take the HDD out, remove the attached Sata connection card, and use it as an internal HDD; ALL the data is still there and accessible. Love it !

Excellent hard drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a nice sized hard drive. I'm using it as a backup for my Mac system. The price was good compared to other options I've looked at. While it comes formatted for Windows systems, it is not too difficult to reformat to the Mac file system. But you have to do that to make it usable.

Compact and easy to use.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We use it at work to backup video production, so we go through space pretty quickly. We've found that backing up on a hard drive like one and then storing it in a safe deposit box is much more cost effective than paying for "cloud storage". This unit is compact and easy to use.

Excellent Drive.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using Western Digital products for years and have always had excellent results. You can't beat the price for the 8TB drive. As an Apple person I need to format my drives to Mac Compatible and it is a breeze. Handles Time Machine without fault and stores my wifes 100,000+ photos with ease. Yes, on occasion the drive does make very slight vibration on my desk that is virtually imperceptible and rare and runs very cool. I tried a Seagate as well and it was a mess. I highly recommend this drive as well as my additional 5 Western Digital drives that have given me nothing but excellent performance. I keep a full b/u of both my Macs on two different Western Digital drives and keep them locked away for safety purposes and only pull them out to update. I never worry that Western Digital will let me down and if needed, Customer Support was excellent when I had an issue with Time machine not backing up. Not Western Digitals issue, a mistake made by me.

awesome drives!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love these Easystore drives of ANY size. The 8TB is a sweet spot for those that need a bunch of extra storage, but nothing too crazy. Best Buy sells this as a GREAT price if you stick around and watch. I highly recommend these drives. Beautiful, slick, small physical size with a HUGE internal storage capacity. Highly recommend.

Same product with more storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have several of these. I buy them Black Friday every couple years as the sizes increase. I am setting this one up for a Plex server at home connected to my router directly. I have a 4 TB connected to my Xbox One which is a faster interface than the internal drive and much more storage. Feel free to research the faster connection as I did before I bought this for that purpose. I have some others as external storage on my computers.

Great transfer rates.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second WD 8TB drive. The last drive used the 2.0 and after upgrading my tower I wanted the speed of the 3.0 transfer rate. Just like the older model, this one is what I always expect from WD. Zooom.
