    This has a lot of space. Slow to spin up so I only use to backup files and then I turn it off. Initially purchased for large video editing files but accessing some of those files for editing is painfully slow and often requires rebooting of the computer. I am using this drive only for archiving. Even then, I wonder how long this drive will stay alive.

    Does what it is supposed to - USB 3 - if you want the a faster connection you are going to pay much more for less storage

    Nice product, but the instructions are a little complicated and there is limited flexibility in how you catalogue and store items.

    This external drive is pretty awesome! It uses Western Digital's RED drive line inside which are designed for long life in a constant use scenario. Speed is great, no complaints. When on sale, typically is cheaper then a regular internal 8TB drive. Well worth the money spent on this. Have recommended this drive to friends and family.
