I've always had good experience with WD hard drives. This is my first 8 TB drive. The real review will be many years from today since longevity and reliability are really what I'm looking for. This rating is for initial impressions. I've already filled the drive more than 50% full and now it'll go off-site for long term backup.

Great product and price! Felt confident purchasing from Best Buy with protection plan, peace of mind if hard drive was not handled properly during transport

The 8tb was on sale at a very competitive price so I bought 4 for a NAS that I hadn’t yet put into service. They are reasonably quiet but definitely not silent. The proof is whether they last 3 to 5 years with no issues.

This hard drive was a replacement for one in my NAS that died after 8 years (also a western digital). The transition between drives and the rebuild of my raid went very smoothly. The drive is running cool.

This was purchased to replace a failed WD drive in my NAS. Hopefully this one last longer than a year. WD is replacing the failed drive under warranty so I will have a shelf spare now.
