Customer Ratings & Reviews

A little noise. I put it on a pad of paper. Good price and work fine. I would recommend base on my experience so far.

I love the option of being able to put a password so that nobody is looking at my personal things

I have been using it with the PS4 since external HD support was recently implemented. It is working with no issues. I do not find it noisy and it is fast enough. I docked one star because it has no external drive light and I like to be able to see hard drive activity. I should point out many people do not like a drive light and find it distracting. So for you fguys-5 stars

Works great even for a rookie Lots of storage for all memories

Huge Storage and USB 3.0 however there are no lights on case to show its on. Connect to pc to see drive and lots of space to store. Great purchase.

Western Digital external hard drives are very reliable. The 8GB drive is very handy and allows me to combine several external hard drives.

8 TB is a bunch of space, even for someone like me who takes 500 photos a day. (I’m a pro photographer) so far it works great too!

Thanks to the USB 3 feature I was able to transfer approximately six terabytes of data in less than just a few hours.

Wanted the biggest backup hard drive. I've used Passports in the past with great success. Installing and setting up backups in Windows 10 was quick and easy.

I had a 5tb My Book for my Xbox One which started filling up fast since games take up so much memory these days. Then one day my 5tb stopped responding. I decided that while I work to get my 5tb working again, I'd get this 8tb to replace it for now. This 8tb has worked so much smoother than the 5tb HD and this 8tb is a bit more sleek in design. Well worth the money - a great product from WD.

I'm using this External Hard Drive with my Playstation 4 to extend its capability. Working perfect, great Item.

I have never been let down when it comes to WD products. And had this one met my needs I am sure I would have been happy. Unfortunately, this product did not meet my demands. I needed a large storage space to do full system backups on 5 desktops and 2 laptops and accessible through my network. This product is suggested for only one computer thus making it difficult to backup others. It would not work the way I wanted it to even making it a shared device on the network. I took it back and ordered the WD 8tb My Cloud drive. This has the features I need and I am happy. I cannot fault the drive as I did not understand its limitations.

8TB - Fast and spacious storage for plenty of photos and videos. It is also compact and takes minimum space on my desk.

More than ample space. I just hope I can use on the new Xbox. The setup was very simple. A much needed purchase either way

Easy to set up. The hard drive is fast and quiet. Because of its size it is ideal for backing up laptops and holding backups of photo storage.

Excellent external hard drive. Plenty of space and easy to use.

More than enough space. Plug and play easy peasy. Not very noticeable, sleek in design. It's my backup to my backup.

For those of us still using desktop computers this external hard drive has the capacity to store pictures and documents. Easy to install.

I pulled this thing apart as WD does not sell an 8GB internal drive in their blue version, but this drive does indeed perform perfectly for me. Good Drive, Great Price.

Very impressed with the speed and storage capacity . Easy plug and play use. Quality product.
