I trust WD because I had already been using one of their 20 TB my book duos for I don't know how long. No, this isn't exactly the same product, and yet at the same time it should theoretically be no different functionally. Truth be told I'm reluctant to give a final opinion at this time. It's working with no issues for now. It's simply the fact that I had it delivered through Amazon that makes me nervous about whether it may have been damaged by shipping.

The reality of the situation is that I bought this specific model at this specific time because it was the most cost efficient option at the time. Truth be told I'd gladly have bought a larger capacity if it was priced the same $ per TB, but I think it's safe to say that the average consumer isn't in the market for these things.

I'm able to preview stored HD videos in realtime while editing and render them without any obvious problem. Seems that everything is being handled about the same as if I had the files stored internally. The USB data transfer is not holding me back.

Is it good for storing and running video games? No idea. I haven't tried, and I won't need to try.

I recently bought the single drive 10TB and to be honest when i did i was a little concerned about people saying its loud in other reviews.Well it makes a sound but its not loud.at all. To top it all i guess it has a sleep feature because after a while you cant hear it at all. In all honesty you cant have a 24\7 working hard drive without some kind of noise.Hard drives are supposed to make some sort of noise. some are louder some are not. im glad to say this is not one of the loud ones.
It wakes up without delay doesnt get hot writing speed is actually better then i expected. Overall i would recommend it. I will come back and update the review if anything happens but for now nothing bad to say about this. Solid purchase great price

Small, pretty quiet, fast enough

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2020

Verified Purchase

I had a Drobo for a few years. I felt safe in the knowledge that if a drive failed that I wouldn't lose any data. I do regular backups but losing your main drive is still a pain.

So, did a drive fail? Nope. The whole Drobo did. Drobo's solution? Buy a new one and recover your data. This convinced me that RAID is just an expensive, over-complicated mess.

When the Drobo died I didn't lose any data but I decided not to bother with that again. This drive was 1/3rd the price of an EMPTY Drobo. I'm still doing regular backups so my risk is exactly the same as it was before. If it dies, I'll buy another one. I can do it several times before I've spent as much as the Drobo cost.

This drive (10TB) is much smaller physically than I expected it to be. It's not much bigger than the Intel NUC that it's connected to. It's pretty quiet except for vibrations that were getting amplified by the desk I have it on. I solved this by putting some felt circles on each of the rubber feet to isolate it from the desk. I occasionally hear chatter when it's working hard but most of the time you can't hear anything.

I'm using the drive as my NAS connected to an Intel NUC which serves up network shares. There's very little activity on it except when I'm backing up my other computers to it or when it's doing it's own maintenance tasks (backups, etc). The speed is fine since the limiting factor for transfers is the network it's attached to.

I'm only using about 35% of the capacity at the moment so hopefully it lasts a long time.

Fast reliable external drives.

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2020

Verified Purchase

Bought two of the 10TB drives. As per my usual habit, of doing a thorough test/burn of drives when I get them with 'badblocks -wsv -b 4096 /dev/sdX' .. where X is the letter of the device. Then check the SMART stats afterwards. That's using Linux Mint, or MX Linux BTW, both excellent replacements for people who are sick of the drama, painful updates, and slowness of Windows.

These had not a single error after two passes of writing the drives from beginning to end and then reading it all back. The average speed was 150MB/sec.

What's more they never exceeded 42C (108F) during the entire run. Although I did have them on a laptop cooler, that's how I run all my external drives.

10/10, would recommend :)

It boggles my mind when I see bad reviews on WD drives, I've had one or two fail over the years, but usually years after the warranty expired. I currently own these 2 and another 3 dozen WD external drives, some portable and some desktop... all doing great! in 2018. WD has been great for my storage needs.

I just plugged it in and used it, does not require the WD software.

Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2019

Verified Purchase

I just wanted a large USB drive for backing up several computers so I could back up files then unplug it to keep it offline (in case of ransom ware or a virus wiping out all your file). I did not install the included software on any of them. I just plugged it in and windows 7 and 10 show it as a 10TB removable drive. You can use the backup program in Windows, buy your own software or just drag or sync your files and folders manually, since I see many people having issues with the included software.

On my newer Windows 10 computers I have gotten transfer speeds to 180MB/s, on my one older Win 7 computer it was running about 108MB/s, probably due to that computers slower green power hard drives.

Good storage-size single drive solution in a low profile case

Reviewed in Canada on February 16, 2020

Verified Purchase

I always trust WD. I've had 100's of drives over the years (over a dozen operating currently) and WD drives have rarely failed (not never, but WD drive failures are far less common than with Seagate - in my experience).

That being said here are 3 things I don't like about this particular model:
- a noticeable hum. not horribly loud, but loud enough that you know when the drive is on. Will probably be easily solved with thicker (or lower density) replacement rubber feet from the dollar store.
- no on/off switch. I like to leave my externals plugged in, and simply turn them on when needed. This one is on with the system if it's plugged in. so it has to be unplugged and plugged back in with each use. Really annoying.
- no power indicator light...if it were not for the hum, you'd never know if the drive is powered up or not. This is an unforgivable omission on an external device.
