  • Good, but not for what I bought it for

    I bought this to provide backup of critical files from my NAS, I think this is a NAS issue, not an issue with the My Book. The NAS did not see the drive, for whatever reason. With my PC it worked very well, which meant I had to stream all the files across the network, which took somewhat longer and tied up my PC. But, a good device, no issues so far.

    Glad to find a truly Plug-N-Play external hard drive. It seems so many external HDs, including others by western Digital, require downloading software, reformatting, partitioning, etc. I use it as an external backup for my HP laptop. Very quiet running, almost silent, and stays cool.

    This is now my biggest hard drive. I have several others up to 5 tb. This is my first 8 Tb. Surprisingly to me it is 1 1/2 times faster than any other external drive iI have and I have over 10 hard drives. My previous hard drives maxed out at 100mb per second where as this 8 tb maxes out at about 180mb er second. large and fast what's to not like. These results are using 3.0 usb
