    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.

    I bought this drive when Best Buy ran a special ($139) a couple weeks before Christmas. Excellent drive with the capacity to backup your entire system.

    We needed a backup external drive for pictures as we are photographers. I’ve found WD the most reliable and prefer them over Seagate after using both.

    Are you looking for a gigantic external storage drive that is about as tall as tall and long as a dvd case and as wide as three of them? This is what you're looking for right here. Comes with everything you need to start dumping all your linux isos onto. The drive itself is a 5400rpm drive which is just fine and dandy for storing your completely legitimately acquired video games.

    Easy to hookup and use. Connected to PC and ran through a diagnostic test using a program like HD Tune. After 14+ hour test the drive was safe to use.

    Good enough, it's no speed demon but seems work just fine . You pay for lower performance and you get it. There are 8TB drives out there that cost more then two times the cost of WD's Easy Store HDD.
