    Tremendous amount for storage for the price. When its full, put it on the shelf and get another. I have been using WD usb 2 and 3 hard drives for many years and they have been great. No failures no problems and no reasons not to have a 2nd set of those precious photos and videos.

    It’s been great so far, it’s served its purpose! I only use it as an ultimate backup. Sometimes I wish I went a different route just for size purposes..but it does what it’s supposed to for me. No real complaints

    Contained WD Reds

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I got these to shuck for the WD Reds inside. They ended up being two drives from Thailand with 256MB cache, which is pretty ideal. Small percentage of these were white label drives from what I saw online. Ones I bought earlier in 2017 were WD Reds with 128MB cache. More people reported that theirs contained the white label drives for the slightly newer/different SKU that's being advertised for the month of Black Friday 2017.
