Bought as replacement to aging HDDs. Read/write speeds are impressive. Overall satisfied. Another consideration for getting this HDD was because there was a price drop at time of purchase.
Brilliant, fast, silent and came in proper box with screws and proper documentation. I use this as a game drive and so far has worked great. No lagging or long loading times. Have the 1 TB and is just as good. I prefer to Pay that bit extra for performance and piece of mind. Less hassle sending faulty drives back to Amazon.
This is the loudest part in my computer but other than that it works well.
Have several smaller WD black drives I use in video and graphics work. They’ve all been fast and reliable. This 8TB model is no exception.
Now, i have installed this new drive well, it’s big and heavy, make sure it’s properly secure in the driver bay. Don’t allow weight on the data teeth, or you will be sorry.
I’m French, sorry for my bad language, i’m not fluant.
I buy this disk for hight capacity storage and the price.
The real speed, you can see at the printscreen.
For me, it’s a good purchase.
When playing games like mass effect remastered, or diablo II remaster this loads super fast and has no intermittent lag when gaming. I have a great gpu, cpu, psu, 32 gig of ram ect. So the only reason my game was lagging every so often was poor hard drive performance. This fixed that.
Warehouse description were small marks on HDD and packaging damaged. I couldn’t see any marks on the HDD. Package was a little scruffy, But not sent in an Amazon box, just a Western Digital box.
Very little use on the drive, Probably 16hrs of use.. 8 “Power on count”.
Quite fast when there was no data on it.. 212 MB/s read , 181MB/s write. Half full it was around 180MB/s Read/Write. Using CrystalDiskMark to test.
Very happy so far noise is only bad when at 100% usage just remember you only get 9tb of useful storage 1tb is used for errors ect for windows 10
Easy to install with a little help from disk manager and your good to go. Plenty of storage for games and load times are pretty good just don’t expect SSD performance. Plus you get a 5 year warranty.
Looking good so far.
The WD Black 8TB 3.5″ internal HDD is working as advertised.
Before buying the 8TB WD Black, I read quite a few reviews about how fast but noisy it was. Glad to report that mine is fast, working smoothly and not at all noisy.
Let’s hope it stays that way.
I really cant fault this excellent drive which although twice the price of Western Digital’s regular Blue drive is well worth the extra cost. I do believe the higher price is well justified. Drive is very quiet and has completely revived an old Dell Precision desktop PC. Five year warranty included, what’s not to like.
If you can afford it this is the one to go for.
Bit more expensive than most. But performance improved over 3TB drive it replaced. Early Days, but so far reliable.
An extremely good drive. Only issue I have with it personally is the noise level though during gaming this shouldn’t really much of an issue. If it is, a WD blue would probably be suited.
Great drive if it last and it has the full 5 year warranty on WDs website
unlike my other drive off amazon Out of Region no warranty
My new computer came with an SSD but I’ve replaced it with this because I need something fast that I can rely on – there are a myriad of things you can do to revive a Hard Disk, not a lot you can do when an SSD fails. The Western Digital Black is almost as quick booting as an SSD and there are lots of data recovery options for your important data. Bad sectors are very rare with WD drives in my experience, I’ve lost count of the number of Seagate drives I’ve had to return because of faults. A WD Black I bought 10 years ago is running bad-sector free. Doubt if any SSD will outlive it’s guarantee by a factor of 2. 5 year warranty!
Good hard drive, much louder than my previous 2TB Seagate but hopefully it will last longer.
Bought two of these to have as a striped RAID array (to further improve disk performance). This disk is a vast improvement over the Blue series disks, and overall quite impressive for a mechanical disk. I also find them very quiet, even in a notoriously loud case.
works well. A little noisy at times – loudest part of my PC!
so far very pleased with drive. took 1 star off because of the useless acronis software bundled with device. It managed to screw up my extended partion on the fist clone so ended doing everything from scratch again a second time. Ended up using 10 year old software bundled with my last drive. Oh and that was also made by acronis!
This 2nd drive, just installed, should give many years of daily use. I have tried other makes of drives but now will only use these WD Black for my main machine.
Good product no issues with it, plug and play and cloned the data from the other harddrive over with software without any problems. packaging was good and quick delivery date.
I won’t get any other type of disk hard drive, this one is very fast and responsive especially as I use it mostl;y for gaming, a nice compliment to my SSD and I’ll be getting another one soon as I ca
Highly recommended if you are looking for a mechanical drive. I have 2 in my machine and I have had no problems with them. They are pretty quick and very quiet. I can’t speak for reliability as they are only a few months old, however, I have always used Western Digital drives in the past and have never had a drive failure.
Anyway, Seagate offered to rescue the data for around 400 with no guarantee of recovery.
This drive is very quick for a mechanical drive and has been reliable so far with no speed loss either.
Based on other reviews I expect this to last the distance.
If I had any advice, buy premium versions of manufacturers HDD’s as the cheaper version are less reliable and have worse warranties.
I will report back on this in a year or so to see if any speed loss or damage has occurred such as bad sectors, etc.
bought this as a back up drive for my ssd , i have always used western digital hard drives since my first one about 10 years ago and never had one fail yet. fast and reliable
This hard drive came well packaged by Amazon and the original consumer boxing was good as well. Did not take long to arrive, other than the hard drive there really isn’t much else that comes with it so don’t expect any installation instructions (although very easy to, or very easy to find instructions online). Hard drive runs smoothly and due to a few other reviews suggesting it would be somewhat noisy I was very satisfied to find out that it is actually rather quiet. Runs programs smoothly and has certainly improved my boot up/loading times. Very happy and the warranty is very good as well.
his is the 2nd one of these hard drives I have bought. I use the first one in my gaming pc. This one is used just for keeping pics, music and video.
Speedwise its faster than a normal desktop hard drive but not as fast as a ssd drive. Noise…I cant really hear it but then I have an old thick steel antec case and the hdd sits on rubber gromets so its hard to make out any noise from it at all.
