Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very quiet when its running, a bit of noise when its doing read/write. If anyone is wondering these have a WD Reds inside with 256mb cache, 5400 rpm. All in all great deal and a great drive! Use it every day.

Great external hard drive. Using it to store and organize old files that I wanted to keep incase OnLine back up fail. Good size for my purpose for now.

Fantastic drive. Purchased to backup my home computer. Works great. Fairly quick drive. Very easy to install. Using a product called CloudBerry to backup to it and it just works. Backups are smooth and easy.

This is the 2nd WD 8T after the first one works really well.

Solid choice for extra storage. This is my 3rd one, and they each perform solidly. I mainly use them for backup and for media storage on my computers and server.

Simple and easy to install. Not a single issue has popped up, couldn't really ask for anything more than this.

With how big games are getting and libraries being very digital as well. This is extremely recommended for Xbox one and as well as X users with HDR patches!

Lots of storage space for the money. Western Digital makes good products, haven'y had any issued wioth their products.

Quality product, Very easy to use. love the design.

This hard drive is really great ESPECIALLY for the price. I have it hooked up to my Xbox series X and have nearly 500 games on it. It’s been great so far!

I've been needing to backup all of my information onto one product for years and finally I've done it! Obviously this product works. It's easy to setup as well.

8TB is just what i need to store 4K videos. I would have preferred the Cloud capability, but this is good to just store a lot of family photos and videos that i have been collecting over the last 15 years.

I bought two of these drives a few weeks ago. I am a professional photographer and on year of backed up photos is about 6TB. I bought one to dump my photos from last year onto and the other just as a back up. Its way cheaper than a raid and it works to store photos I am not editing daily. One stays by my computer and I just plug it in when I need to go back and one is in a fireproof safe as a backup. Cannot beat the amount of storage for this price and so far they have been flawless.

Really nice that you can connect as a NAS OR direct attached USB storage and go back and forth as needed. Love this!

Easy transaction and usability; simple instructions; lightweight and very moveable; an affordable and an excellent backup system

I've owned my fair share of external drives ranging in size. The Western Digital 8TB drive has lasted me well so far. I have had similar drives from Seagate and those failed on me after only a couple years.

This is a great product, works as described. A much needed purchase for me.

I picked this hard drive up on Black Friday for an excellent price. We will be backing up and uploding every photo we have ever taken and look forward to the ample space left over for many years to come. Pretty simple external hard drive. You plug it in and connect to computer and instant 8 TB of storage. Its very easy, highly functional, and very affordable. I ordered it online and toon advantage of free in-store pickup. The entire process was seemless.

At the price this is a great value for the size. Perfect to back up tons of media. It’s not a question if your external device will fail...it’s when. So this drive is a great way to add lots of redundancy.

What can I say what has not been said many of times on the review of WD Easystore 8TB External Drive. As promised WD Red Nas drive is inside of course and using in for my Plex Server. Works great. The End.
