    A Good Hard Drive for the Money

    This is a very solid and well-performing hard drive. It may not have the speed of an SSD, but for the price, it is a good hard general-purpose storage. It makes a great replacement for a PS3 or PS4 console and works very well on laptops that use 2.5-inch drives.

    After the advice given from geek sqd to spend upwards of $500+, i decided to try backing my failing hard drive up to an external drive, then installed this hard drive. With a tad bit of assistance from a tech savvy friend we did a perfect job and spent less than $200. Love this drive, it's fast and more than enough space.

    Perfect for the extra storage i needed. I used this along side an ssd drive for some of the less used programs on my pc. I still found it to be fairly quick and the price is just right

    My ASUS drive died after about 2 years. Replaced with this one. Right price for a 1 T unit. So far its great - we'll see about the reliability as I don't replace stuff if its useful.

    This 1 TB HDD is nice price vs capacity, i know SSDs are faster but if you need large storage space, this is an excellent drive! Just get an adapter if you plan to install it in a desktop because of the laptop size 2.5 that is this drive!

    It’s a hard drive, so you don’t buy for speed. Probably not the •best• value either, but still very good. It only claims to work with Windows, but I was able to use it in a 2013 iMac just fine. I’m never going to use all the storage with this computer. It’s solid, quiet, and reliable. Good for mass storage.

    I really liked this 2.5" 1 TB drive. Installed it on my 2007 MacBook Pro 15" and it works great. Finally able to have a large library of movies, music and pictures. Performance is about the same as my old drive. Great price too!

    I had to replace a 160 GB HD and bought the Western Digital 1 TB HD. Easy install and format ready. The drive runs quiet and now I have a 1 TB of storage. Very happy with this purchase.

    As a friendly reminder: Do not install modern Windows on a hard drive! You're going to have a bad time! ... with that out of my system, let's get to the details. 5400RPM, quiet, part of their consumer-grade "Blue" drives. Legitimately good, in terms of file and game storage. In sustained reads, I saw it happily hover between 75-150MB/s with batches of steam libraries being moved to an SSD. In sustained writes, it held it's own pretty competently. Hovering anywhere between 80-100, as well. I wouldn't run any super large game titles on this, or anything with a fairly large open world. But for re-locating your Music, Videos, Documents, Pictures, and Downloads folders to keep your boot drive free... The seek times are pretty quick, it is pretty silent, and works okay. Buy this for a storage drive.

    Used this to upgrade my ps4s storage and works about the same in terms of performance and loading times. But you do get the additional space. In my opinion I believe the ps4s storage to the max is just to 1tb to perform well or about the same. I think a 2 tb drive is a tad bit slower

    I have a little file server at home to store pictures and videos. When the hard disk started acting up, I knew I needed something quick. Since my local Best Buy had this in stock for pickup, I ordered this, and it really fits the bill. It has been running for a few months now without a glitch. Westrern Digital has been a mainstay in hard drives for over 20 years, and I have yet to be disappointed in their quality and support.

    Great addition to my Acer Nitro 5 laptop

    I purchased this as additional storage to my Acer Nitro 5 laptop that only came with 256GB SSD storage. Using the 1TB as extra storage to install applications, some games, but more importantly, keeping the SSD from becoming full quickly. No complaints at this time, but do realize in today's day and age, even 1TB can be filled up pretty quickly when you can have a single game taking up to 60GB+ of data.
