    I purchased this drive to organize thousands of photos from several vacations. The plug and play nature meant that there was no needed setup and I was able to quickly copy thousands of photos to the drive from many sd cards. The 8TB is a tremendous amount of storage so I'll be able to keep all my photos in one place.

    Was running out of backup space in prior storage. This fills the bill nicely, and sets up automatically if you like. Good price too at Best Buy.

    Plenty of storage for keeping track of my RAW photos. I am going to have to move it further away from my workstation as it does have a very quiet and subtle ticking when it's idle. Tends to grab my attention when the rest of the room is quiet.

    Bought this to take the drive out and put it in my Plex server, and it did not let me down. White label drive inside that is working perfectly.

    Good sized footprint and very functional. Time will tell as far as 'quality' goes, but thus far it functions as intended. Plenty of storage for my purposes, to include backup and photos.
