    Great value and the product works as it should. It also does not look bad sitting on top of your desk. Much faster than a basic hard drive.

    I picked this unit up for $150, it typically will run you close to $300. Wd makes a 8, 10 and 13 tb model. I've been using western digital for over 10 years now and have not had 1 issue.

    I save camera video to hard disks. Usually, with the HD quality, it takes a lot of hard disk space, so the more the better. The 8 TB drive is just what I need to archive a lot of video for the future.

    I bought this to replace a Seagate 4TB Game Drive (constant issues with that thing), and am very pleased so far. My only complaint is that it is louder than I thought it would be.

    Works fine and I have no problems with it. I also use it with my server and it works as it should! One can even remove the drive and put it into a computer or other devices so don't be afraid to buy it!

    I bought this for the size / capacity and works well for a backup drive. I does make a bit of sound when on which was a bit dristracting at first before I realized what is was.

    I was able to transfer a large number of files and barely used a percentage of the space. I'd be surprised if I filled the drive up within the next few years.
