    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.

    Super easy to use but rather bulky and you have to plug it in. We needed this to store county board meeting recordings, so the extra storage capacity was a must. Good product overall!

    I needed more space to store my stuff and it’s easy to use. I’m not tech savvy but I didn’t have trouble setting up. Still works great like it’s not there just open the program and transfer the data for storing.
