Customer Ratings & Reviews

this harddrive provide me with plenty of storage for all my media needs. its reliable, fast, and compact

I back up my pc to this, then back this up to cloud. This is not the first WD I have used, and I have been problem free. I would buy again, if needed. That's a lot of bytes for the money.

This is a good product, it works very well, I haven't had any Poblem with it

I wanted to do a back up for a PC I have and didn't want to put the files on my network drive. This external drive is big and it is USB only which is what I was looking for. Worked fine.

I got this to replace a 4tb My Passport drive because I was running out of room. This one works fine but it is noisy compared to the My Passport. There is a steady thump thump sound when it is on. I have been able to archive a lot of files to it.

I use Western Digital drives to back up all my data. Would recommend.

Initial review: Great HDD. After 2 years: Great HDD. (I shucked it)

I already had a 10TB Western Digital external drive and bought this one for a different desktop....they both are excellent storage drives...

This is a great hard drive! Just plug and play. Very user friendly.

This is a very good drive to have. You can keep all your files and everything else on one drive with space to spare. Lots of room to keep it all and at a very good price can’t be beat.

As a photographer I save many raw images and jpeg files. I archive EVERYTHING never knowing when I might need that one special image. With 8TB there is plenty of room for all my files.

Bought this as a backup for my readynas. So far it works well. Relatively fast for a usb device, and you can't beat the price for 8tb.

Shucked Easily. Mounted it in my UNAS 8 Bay DAS and it worked perfectly. Would buy another one at 119.99 when they get back to that price.

It has the capacity I was looking for at a great price. So far it's performing very well.

I purchased this model after looking for a few weeks at different brands and sizes. I noticed that it was a Doorbuster item this month for December and decided to take the plunge. For the $99 I spent plus tax, I couldn’t be happier. Fast, reliable and quiet. 8TB of space is more than I need. I use this for my MacBook Pro 2017 model and it works flawlessly with Time Machine. Only gripe I have, but nothing I am really complaining about simply because of the price I paid, would be that it’s a disk drive; would rather have had a Solid State Drive for speedier service. Hands down a great value and would recommend to anyone if this fits their needs.

Love this drives. They are great for extra storage. So far they have lasted well and given no problems. Run quiet.

Fast easy storage and lots of room for photos. And so much more

Great backup option to store those valueble family photos

I waited until it was on sale and have only used it for two weeks. So far, so good. It is large enough to backup my mac and windows drives. Only time will tell, how long it will last.

This is a good and reliable 8TB external hard drive for my Windows-10 laptop computer, and my desktop computer. I use it to store backups.
