    Received the product in the mail, took it back to Best Buy within the hour and was not allowed to exchange but was forced to return the broken one and buy at a higher price the new 8 TB External hard drive, then told I could come back in 6 days to get my refund.

    The WD Easystore 8TB External Hard Drive was well worth the purchase. It was a simple plug and play into my computer and it has been storing large amounts of data ever since. I would highly recommend this product for anyone needing to store large amounts of data and to have it recalled quickly!
