Memory Storage Capacity: 16 TB
Product arrived on time and packaged well. Simple to set up: connect the USB cable and plug in the power cable and was ready to use. Downloads were easy and very fast with lots of storage for me (16TB).

    • Western Digital 22TB Elements Desktop External Hard Drive Review
Memory Storage Capacity: 18 TB
Review Image by Amazon Customer Amazon Customer
If you’re in search of reliable and expansive external storage solutions, look no further than the Western Digital 18TB Elements Desktop External Hard Drive. With its impressive capacity and dependable performance, this external hard drive is a game-changer for content creators, graphic designers, and video editors alike. I recently purchased the 18TB variant of this external hard drive, and I must say, I’m thoroughly impressed. Prior to making this investment, I had experienced the unfortunate demise of a competitor’s 12TB drive. Thankfully, I was able to retrieve all my data, but it was a stark reminder of the importance of choosing a reliable brand. Western Digital has proven itself to be just that – reliable. Unlike my previous experience with another brand that exhibited concerning cracking sounds, this Western Digital drive operates quietly and smoothly, a testament to its solid engineering and durability. What’s particularly appealing about Western Digital’s lineup is the wide range of capacities available, ranging from 4TB all the way up to a whopping 22TB. As a content creator with demanding storage needs, having access to such expansive capacities is essential for backing up my work and ensuring I never run out of space. Speaking of which, as a content creator, graphic designer, and video editor, storage space vanishes in the blink of an eye. That’s why having a high-capacity external hard drive like the Western Digital 18TB Elements Desktop External Hard Drive is an absolute necessity. It not only provides ample space for storing large media files and project backups but also offers peace of mind knowing that my valuable work is securely backed up. In fact, I’m so impressed with this external hard drive that I’m already considering upgrading to the 22TB model in the near future. After all, when it comes to safeguarding my creative assets, there’s no such thing as too much storage. In conclusion, if you’re a content creator, graphic designer, or video editor in need of reliable and spacious external storage, I highly recommend Western Digital’s Elements Desktop External Hard Drives. Trust me, it’ll make your life a whole lot easier and your workflow much more efficient. ... show more

    • Great Product For a Good Price
Memory Storage Capacity: 8 TB
I only buy Western Digital hard drives as they are proven more to have less issues than other brands. This is my 5th one of these. I run in depth tests prior to use and never had any issues.

    • Works well
Memory Storage Capacity: 20 TB
Works very well... just connected it to a USB3 port and Windows 11 saw it right away. Lots of room for large backups of photos and videos. Only 4 stars though for 2 reasons. First is the utility software loaded on the hard drive does *not* work with this particular model. So why load useless software? Second is that it will *not* work through a powered USB3 hub, but it is fine when connected directly to the computer. My old Seagate 6TB USB drive does work with the hub with no issues. ... show more

    • Attached to Tablo for greater recording space
Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB
Great add disk derive if you want to save a lot of recordings. Device has worked flawlessly since purchased. Hookup was simple and now able to save all the programs that I want. Drive noise level is very low. I’m using in a bedroom and can’t hear the drive from the bed.

    • Dependable workhorse of a drive
Memory Storage Capacity: 8 TB
I've had the 8TB version of this drive for 6 years on my Plex server and it has performed flawlessly and still going strong. I've had other drives fail in that time period, including a Samsung SSD, but this drive keeps chugging along. I've been very happy with it overall.

    • What a deal!
Memory Storage Capacity: 10 TB
This drive is AMAZING. I've had it since 2019 and I've been using it mainly as a backup drive so I just plug it in to run backups from all of my other hard drives. The price and storage space are unbeatable, and I haven't had a single issue with it. So simple to plug in and unplug as needed, and it has great transfer speeds with USB 3.0 support. I was not counting on finding such a cheap, reliable, high quality external drive. ... show more
