    Love these drives. I now own about 10 of them which I’ve as external back up drives and also as server drives. They last under 24/7 use for me and haven’t had an issue yet.

    If you're looking to add space to your computer and you're not computer savvy with installing internal hard drives than this item is what your looking for. It takes minutes to install and start using right away, great transfer speeds.

    I bought the Easystore because I was having an issue getting consistent throughput to my DAC from a NAS. I have the Easystore connected to my Intel Skull Canyon NUC and now everything works like a charm. I also like the 8TB disc size.

    Works great. Fast throughput when using USB 3 and USB 2 works fine. No issues at all. Doesn't run hot. I move it around to different rooms and units to back up, copy and play videos. Get it on sale. It's on sale on and off. Cheers!

    that's voiding the warranty of the device as a whole though so beware! Google for instructions. This was bought awhile ago so I'm not sure about the current versions.

    I've been using this external hard drive for almost seven months and have had no issues. The unit is quiet, data transfer speed is fast, and there's enough storage space for me to hopefully not need another drive for some time.

    Using the disk to back up 3 computers. My 3TB drive wasn't big enough any more. The USB 3.0 speed is faster than the internal drives I'm backing up. All computers are Windows 10. Not using any Western Digital software.
