    Awesome hard drive

    I own several of these now. They're basically WD RED drives in an enclosure, but for a much cheaper price than the actual internal drives. The fact they aren't "green" drives means they should last a good long while. The only issue with them is the passive cooling, if you choose to use these as externals (the way they come), be careful of it overheating when writing a lot of data to it. I actually took mine out of the plastic enclosures and put them in my PC where I have fans cooling them.

    Saw this deal on Cyber Monday for $129 and was too good to pass up for 8TB. Unlike others, I'm strictly using it for external storage and backup and not shucking the case. I've always stuck with WD drives and have never had an issue, maybe I've been lucky. Easy plug and play on Win 10, working great so far.

    Picked this up from Best Buy at a great price through a Deal of the Day promotion. I've used smaller Western Digital external hard drives and pocket drives for years, and never had one fail me. I wanted to consolidate the multiple drives connected to my computer, and this allowed me to do that. Very happy with it.
