    I bought this to use as a internal HDD, cover the 3.3v pin and you have yourself a 8tb internal. great purchase and i no longer need to worry about storage. As an external, it does the job you would need it to do. Buy it when it goes on sale for 60 dollars off. Worth the money at that point.

    WD is a great external hard drive. It is not a red WD; it has a white label on the hard drive, but it works great as an external hd.
