my last set of WD hard drive is 6 years old and have over 10 years worth of data transfer from other hard drives, even though the old one still works great i feel like it was a good time to replace my old ones with 2 of these . over all i hope these will last just as long as my last hard drives, these hard drives does not run when you not accessing the folders and whenever you click on the drive you can hear a click and the motor ramping up . theres about 3 second delay before able to access the drives

After purchasing seven devices like this from 3 different vendors. Finally, I have one that came with all the instructions, all the cables, and everything. worked for the time I plugged it in. On the first try 4 drives. I love it. I'm crying right now.

Very easy to use and had no problems recognizing and locating the device. Its extra storage space I can easily fit in my travel case with my other Photography gear and laptop so size is nice.

1. Small footprint; 2. Easy to use - typical plug and play; 3. USB C to USB A adapter - crucial for desktops with USB C port at the back (like mine) or laptops without USB C port(s): 4. USB 3.0 - relatively fast data transfer; 5. Nicely shaped, neutral colour, unobtrusive - very elegant design; 6. REASONABLY PRICED - a rarity these crazy days!

This is the third one of these that I have purchased. I haven't had a single issue and I'm very happy with the quality of the product.

Works as expected.

reliable and portable, easy setup

I use the docking station to move from a PC with 6 drives to a iMac 5k. To my surprise all the PC drives 3T and 4T were instantly available on the mac as well as all the files and photos! I can have both mac and pc drives in the doing station at the same time. I can pop in the drives I need when I need them. What a difference in transferring from a mac to PC which I did 3 months ago. That was an experience that no one should have to undergo!

I am using this as my primary genomic dataset decompression/analysis/recompression drive. It replaced the competitor’s highest-end consumer-grade performance hard drive, which also has a five year warranty. Sustained writes of 170MB/s are amongst the highest I’ve seen from a single (mechanical/platter-based) hard drive. For comparison, the drive it replaced topped out at 150MB/s according to my testing. This Seagate drive also has slightly lower latencies than the drive it replaced. At idle it pulls a few watts less than the drive it replaced. Finally, it is noticeably quieter (though in an enterprise setting this is irrelevant).


Great product

-easy installation -sturdy enclosure means it will stay put -option to upgrade optical drive later

* Very simple to set up and get working * Surprisingly nice packaging (especially at this price-point) * Fairly complete packaging with multiple cable options

I would recommend Western Digital HDDs (or even their SSDs, I've got those, too) to anyone needing to expand or enlarge their existing system. Easy to install and configure to your Windows OS.

Quick & easy Reliable Fast
