    There was a another WD Easystore external hard drive, a 10TB, offered at the same time. I did some simple math and it turned out the price per terabit was almost exactly the same. I needed a backup, but decided to hedge my bets with an 8TB instead of the 10TB. Plus it came with a Shutterfly offer ($25 or the 8X8 photo book) That further reduced the price per TB. I've had nothing but success with WD products, so I took this combo.

    I purchased 4 of these drives in the last 4 months. I will be buying a few more this spring. They work very well and for the price you can't do better. The four that I have contained WD Red drives. I will be using them in a FreeNAS server I am going to build. Can't do better than these drives.
