    Good open-source Desktop HDD

    I decided to format the HDD to NTFS. Moved some different types of files (music, video, movies, documents, database spreadsheets etc.). Tested retrieval and use in place. All worked well. Moved the files back to tge PC and tested them. Again, worked well, no perceived damage. Good External Hard drive. Like it.

    Stay away from My Book 8TB

    Bought one used and had problems with it - Decided to get a new one recently and... had problems with it! Unlike WD's EasyStore drives, these My Book 8TB units seem dodgy - it's tough to get files on them and after you do, your computer suddenly doesn't recognize the drive. I like WD as a company and have several of their Elements, My Book and EasyStore drives but one thing I am sure of: the My Book series is no good once you go over the 6TB size.

  • Seems to speed up transfers from previously slow drives.

    It's interesting that the speed varies. I've tried to narrow down what leads to higher speeds, and so far it seems to be the temperature of the laptop (I use the HDD with a laptop). It's not portable but I needed some extra space at a reasonable price. I'm not sure how this happened, but twice I saw an incredibly quick data transfer between HDDs, something I'd never seen before - about 1.5 GB/s, but most of the time it ranges between 80 MB/s and 200 MB/s which is better than what I had been getting.

  • Very Good 8TB Hard Drive (7.27 TB)

    I received the Hard Drive and assessed it Physically (it looked good). I plugged it into my small PC. It was instantly recognized by the PC. I temporarily moved all the software from the Hard Drive to the PC and Formatted it to NTFS and then reenter the software back to the WD Hard Drive. I made folders on the Hard Drive and loaded each with different types of data. Videos, Music, spread sheets, Documents, Databases, etc I tried to open each in turn. All Worked flawlessly. I then downloaded the files back to the PC and ran comparisons with the originals. They were all True. Conclusion ... hard drive works well
