  1. AlBand –

    Nice hard drive for storage- business or personal.

  2. Yamakira –

    They always have sales on the external drives so i would say add them to your wishlist and get one when on sale. They are great and add alot of storage, also rock solid ! I have had 15-20 WD drives over the years and they are all still working with no issues. I personally only get or recommend WD drives because ive had others, especially seagate and they never last long before getting a lot bad sectors and eventually dying

  3. Link182 –

    This is perfect if you have a lot of files wd never fails to amaze me. No defects and I had it for a good while now.

  4. Progman –

    I have now owned this for two years. Still works perfect. It’s used as a Plex drive so accessed daily. Well worth the investment.

    Worked just like I hoped it would. Best Buy always has the best deals.

  24. LYBAL –

    Setup was easy, plug and play. Works just like the other two I purchased years before. Now have three of them hooked hp to the same machine and all worked with no issues. Used a USB 3 hub to connect all three to one USB 3 port on the PC. Value rated at 5 stars because I purchased from Deal of the Day special price of $80.00 off.

  29. Hstew –

  30. Mischa –

    Easy to use. It has been a lifesaver in backing up my laptop and storing all my photos and videos

  31. bb1234 –

    Great to use for game storage on an Xbox. Just needs external power

  32. Unknown –

    Absolutely phenomenal deal for the amount of memory I got. It does seem to load slower sometimes for some reason but not a big deal.  it is a hard drive after all.  don’t regret the purchase at all. 

  33. Thomas –

    I bought this on sale, so it was a great price. I was able to back up my tower computer and 3 laptops, and still have room for much more.

  34. MikeH –

    wasn’t what I thought or told from the store rep. thought I would be able to drag/drop sub folders and files.

  35. bonafide49 –

    Good storage medium. Lots of space for future storage needs. But, as with all things digital, be sure to have a second copy on another medium as a backup.

    Set up is easy for both MAC OS and Windows. Plug in and play.

    I bought it two months ago. It is great and I am satisfied.

  38. NightSkyFlash –

    It’s a bit of a pain to have to deal with the drive’s power supply, but it makes the drive way faster. I was backing up morw than 5TB of data at one time and it did it in a few hours. Love it.

  39. BrianM –

    This drive contains a WD White, which is a helium drive. If it happens to tip over, there is no data recovery company on the planet that can retrieve the data. Avoid like the disaster this is.

  40. MikeP –

    Been using in my server. Shucked it without any issues.

  41. dabase –

    bad out of the box. software is now unsupported by WD.

  42. DHReview –

    It’s an external storage unit that does exactly what it’s meant to do, store an enormous amount of whatever you want or need it to.

    There’s nothing to using – no setup or anything of the sort. You plug it in and it ready to go.

    You do need to eject it though if you want to remove it from your computer safely. (You can do this with the upwards pointing arrow on the taskbar)

  43. NormanS –

    very goodxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  44. DaveB –

    Solid device. Works well………………………

  45. Skoobb –

  46. Nick –

    2 years later and it’s still running. Great for real-time backup.

  47. Perry –

    The WORST hard drive I have ever purchased! I have purchased many over the years. This drive DIED in less than 7 months. I strongly recommend you avoid this hard drive. I have lost all confidence in WD.

  48. Rivero –

    This product from WD has a lot to offer. Speed and durable. I own several of this, all working as new

  49. AbrahamC –

    I have to always unplug it so the context can be displayed on the tv. Besides that it’s serves it purpose.

  50. DanielK –

    Drive was used a total of two times. The thing won’t even turn on anymore and I have had it literally for about a year sitting on a desk.

    Never damages or anything. Absolutely junk.
