Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works just like you need it to! Definitely going to buy another when I need more space!

Works great. Easy to set up and in minutes you are ready to store whatever you need to.

Works great for backing up all of my computers and electronics. Faster than my old 3tb Seagate. Got it on sale for fair price at 139.99. Will eventually move to backup ps4 or ps5. Also is a Best Buy exclusive.

The surprise hidden inside each of these high capacity external drives is apparently a Western Digital Red NAS-rated hard drive. These are designed for long life and high reliability. While not ultra-high speed, they are more than enough for USB 3.0. An excellent value.

Another name brand product stopped working. It cost almost twice as much as the original product to recover the data. My original Western Digital, external hard drive is still working after buying it years ago! I am happy with WD reliability and recommend their products.

This is my second storage device ( First One was a 4 TB). Massive storage for the money ( Black Friday Special). Its efficient, quite and easy to work with.

Bought this so I could have a place for old photos that were on my phone. Works as expected.

I use this as my secondary backup drive for media. It run really quite. The only downside i see its not ssd and 16 tb lol

Currently using it for storing server backups locally. So far it has been perfect!

Extremely useful! All of my files are backed up with no issues and with space to spare. Excellent value for the price.

put it on my new computer and share it on my network! great for backing up data! I have lots of photos using it for genealogy work!

I plugged it into my Linux computer ad was able to easily format it as ext4 for use on my Linux systems.

Western Digital *TB external USB drive - I only buy WD external drifves as I have never had a drive fail, they work all day long end up thrwoing them away when I need a larger size!

Low Noise, High Capacity Desktop Hard Drive. Good deal for network storage. Western Digital has always been reliable for me.

Easy setup (plug and play). Fast USB 3.0 transfer protocol supported. Automatic backup software seamlessly integrates with Windows 10, 8.1, or 7; downloadable NTFS driver to support macOS. Ample storage space for any application.

I'm a big fan of WD external drives so I knew what I was getting. Right out of the box it was ready to go. No formatting necessary as I was using it as a capture device for my XBOX One S and X. I even bought 2 because the Black Friday price was to good to pass up.

I love this hard drive. As a videographer it's perfect for storing old footage, but I wouldn't recommend editing off of it!

I needed a drive that would store a large amount of data, long term, and this drive fills the bill. Operation is very quiet and speed is satisfactory over USB. As always, make sure you have alternate copies of critical data files as no method of storage is forever.

With the HUGE data storage tasks I have to deal with (4k video; high bit-rate WAV audio production, engineering data management tasks, etc.) I need BIG storage tanks to keep projects in one place and not 'spread out' over several computers. This is the way to go.

Needed a larger external hard drive and this seemed a good deal for the amount of storage for the price.
