    Easy to install, literally just plug it in. Doesn't over heat fast, if at all. High speed and you can control a lot of the settings to optimize efficiency.

    I have used WD drives for several years. I have purchased many of them over the last few years. This drive is a great value since the drive inside is a WD Red drive so this drive is built with reliability. WD Red has features such as NAS compatibility, increased reliability and more.

    The 8tb external storage is going to be big and easy enough to back up all your data. I haven't used the included backup software but it seems adequate.

    Used to backup a few PCs and it works great for that purpose. It does heat up under heavy use so I placed a fan near it.
