Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got this on sale, but even at normal pricing this is a good value. Lots of storage, and so far I have had no issues with it. Transfer speeds are not bad either, usually averaging 130 MB/s with large files in Explorer, which I think is in line with USB HDD like this. I don't use any of the included software, but so far it has been great for backing up my files in Windows 11.

Great looking, quiet, and speedy storage device. Own two of these for use in backing up photos and videos.

This external dive storage is huge, and works perfectly for onsite backups of all of my devices.

I bought this because the then in use HD was on the verge of failing. I needed to transfer what was on a 3TB model before it was lost AND have sufficient room for future storage. I saw this model while in store and decided to buy it. I've used the products before and trust it. The storage size was right, the unit was on sale, and, as always, I knew that BestBuy stands by their sales. Operationally, it is plug and go. I haven't had any problems with it. If you need a massive amount of storage for a great price then consider buying this.

You can’t go wrong with this high capacity, reasonably-priced external hard drive.

Bought so that Xbox one would have more storage capacity for all of my kids games. Works great and was fairly cheap for the amount of storage.

The hard drive was good quality and had ease of use at attractive price. Western Digital products are so nice, i'll never think twice about buying another brand.

Plenty of storage and easily set up. Great value for capacity

It is, so far, exactly what I expected, 8TB of storage with a moderate xfer rate. I purchased one drive roughly a month ago and another last week. I've had WD drives in the past and so far I have no reason to assume they won't provide years of reliability.

Lots and lots of space! We downloaded games on it to save computer space and there's still lots of room. Easy to install

I have always loved the wd mybook harddrives. The 8tb is no exception. The capacity for the price is amazing. It is easy to install and use.

The drive was needed for an immediate need for work. It was convenient to order online and pay, but when sent someone else to go pick it up it took them a long time to find the order. (Not an issue with the USB drive of course.) We needed a drive with at least 8TB f storage and this one fit the bill. No issues what-so-ever in using the device. Once data was stored on the device it needed to be shipped to Chicago and arrived intact. We'll be using the same drive for the same need again.

This is a very reliable and stable storage device with enough capacity to make it truly useful. Great for Dropbox use.

This drive has the capacity and security I need. It is easy to use and provides the options I need. It was easy to set up and works well.

Great external hard drive with much needed additional space. Easy to use, plug and use. Also a good price.

I bought this hard drive to extend memory for my PS4 works great easy install basically plug and play have had no issues

Spins up fast, can be a little loud sometimes but overall a solid hard drive with tons of space.

I bought this to keep at my office for photos and large files. Works great, very affordable for the size.

Easy setup, more space than I will ever use and I love it. Purchased at a great price.

This drive was perfect as a spare back up drive for all of my photos and videos. It's big and faintly fast and very reasonably priced.
