Works well, way quieter than a normal external drive Run pretty cool in temp too

It's super quiet and access times are above what I expected. I admit this is my first large capacity drive ever, so far I am impressed. Already planning to aquire 3 more.



Plug-and-play with Windows 10. Great sale price for a 4TB drive. Has been working flawlessly as a backup drive for my three internal drives using Macrium Reflect Home.

Arrived on time and formatted right out of the packaging. I'm using it in an external USB enclosure as a backup drive.

Does what it's supposed to do. Simple Installation.

Works Silent Pretty fast

Easily accommodates a full size 3.5 inch drive eSata connection is faster than expected Allows addition of big HDDs to Laptop dock Stays cool without fan noise (there is no fan) Reasonable size footprint


I had another one of these and being a big dummy I knocked it off the shelf. After a few days it stopped working so I needed a new one. It's a great product! I've used Western Digital HDD for years and I'm very happy with them.

Used to expand my NAS, arrived promptly and was well packaged. No complaints.

NO RAID Real HBA PCI Gen 3 Works awesome with Windows Storage Spaces


Great value for the overall cost

First impression after starting it on a dock this morning is: What a speedy beast! My fist 8088 PC had a seagate 20MB doing 125 kB/s from an MFM controller. Took 2.5 hours for low-level then DOS format The WD takes less than a day to fill. Wonder what The SAS version does. And got 2 with a 5 year warranty for less than twice the price per TB of 12 unwarrantied 3TB HGST K4000 being auctioned today. Conditional to lasting performance this is a Super Deal! At room temperature they runs the 220 MB/s R/W test at 45 C cool! Since they are 7200 RPM they will probably be OK as spares for my 8*18 TB raid array.

Preforms as expected.

I'm very pleased to now be the proud owner of 2 My Passport ext. hard drives by Western Digital. I'm using them in tandem for backup, taking one to my bank's storage vault every other week. They're quick, reliable & seemingly fail-safe.
