Affordable and decent speed for backup and storage
My story in short:I ran out of space on both of my ssd drives while video editing.Contents being too large for 1080p, were limiting my work of editing.Options to choose from to buckup and/or store my videos were internal or external HDD, unless i am a filthy rich guy to get high storage ssd.Being portable and easy to carry with just 1/4 of read/write speed from my SSD, i chose WD my book 6TB external HD with great 3year warranty.Now all my contents are safe and secured in this drive.Con:somethings the device will have louder sound then my PC.

I bought two of these. One to store my photos and videos. The other to back the first one up. They work perfectly in their jobs. Speed is good... They are quite... I am happy. Recommended.

I have two of these already. Very reliable external hard drive. Great for storage and backup, but everyone should know that its life span is 2-3 years so backup often

This is the best value storage capacity for the price from WD at the time of purchase (about $28 per terabate). I'm surprised that there is no power switch on this drive and no LED indicating when the drive is in use. Maybe you don't need it, and the drive powers down by itself when the data cable is disconnected, but I haven't tested that.

I can feel it spinning when I touch it, but it's very quiet. It's also slow when moving files from internal hard drive, but it can get up to 160MB/s when moving files from internal SSD.

If you're handy with computers, and all you want is a dumpster for your movies and audio, the first thing you should do is delete the volume using Computer Management in Windows, and then create a new one and format it. This gets rid of all the hidden software WD installed on this drive.

My old Hard drive died on me, sadly I lost all my pictures and videos I had on it but getting this one I have started to back up all my videos from my current computer. It was easy to use I simply plugged it in and away I went to work. 6Tb is a bit big for what I'm using it for but I wanted teh space to play with and use for years to come.

I use this to backup my CDs and for easy access to my music from the computer and network. I never had a Western Digital drive crash although I've had quite a few over the last 10 years. In the same period, I had 3 Seagate drives crash, causing the loss of important data and lots of wasted time trying to recover what could be recovered. This is my experience anyway. So I always buy WD drives even if the price is slightly higher. Only drawback to this model is that it is missing a drive activity LED (how much did that cost?).

6 TB is lots of storage, it's not very bulky, very easy to hide behind a TV or monitor.
Great price for the amount of storage, very easy to use and hook up to game consoles.

I have bought so many of these drives and I haven't had any problems with them, some of the WD MY Books are 5-6 years old and still work without an issue. It's funny to read most of the posts on here because I've never had any of these problems mentioned. I'm also a data specialist, so if you ever have any questions regarding these drives ask someone who really knows that they're talking about.

Gutes Speichermedium. Nach meiner bisherigen Erfahrung sind die WD My Book Desktop Externe Festplatte, 1 TB und 2 TB sehr robust und langlebig. Ich gehe davon aus, das auch die 6 TB die selbe hohe Qualität besitzt.
