  • Fast! Built tough! Runs cool(er)!
Size: 12TB Style: Xbox Pattern Name: Hard Drive
We love the WD_Black D10 series 12TB External Gaming Drive. It makes for a great external solution for both PCs as well as past gaming consoles. I say past because the ones launching next month are going to work best with NVMe SSD solutions when it comes to taking advantage of the proper load times and frame rates. This also makes for a great general external storage solution for everything else, although there are a few more affordable 12TB-14TB solutions on sale recently if you don’t need the boost in speed this has to offer. This is the only thing that would have dropped the score on this one is how expensive it is (but only if we could have dropped it by half a star, which we cannot sadly). Is the drive a little louder than some? Yes, it can be. Is it annoying? Not really, unless you sit it too close to you are you are using it. If it is under a desk or has some distance between you and where it sits, it isn't as noticeable. If you had any experience with the type of drive that is inside, you'd fully understand this and expect it. How much faster is it? This can vary depending on the speed of the drive sending information to it with, as well as the type of files (quantity, size, etc). It varies if you are actively writing to it vs transferring a file. This is the same with any drive. However, usually everyone likes to base everything on the write speed of file transfers, and in that case, the average speed was around 230MB/s. Faster than your typical 5400rpm external drive, but not going to change your life or anything. It's just there if require the extra speed. This also depends on the drive you'd be comparing it to--old or modern, which could make the difference anywhere between 50-100MB/s faster than these other HDD options. It's nice to have a fan already inside since if you abuse your external drives with constant large transfers and monitored their temps. you'd realize many of them like to get quite a bit hot. So having a fan inside already helps prolong the life of the drive. **If you have found our review helpful, please vote it as helpful below so we know.

  • Not just for Xbox; great external drive for a PC
Size: 12TB Style: Xbox Pattern Name: Hard Drive
I purchased the 12 TB model. Not sure why the 8 TB model is rated for more products and the 12 TB model is only listed as being for Xbox. As other buyers indicated, it is detected by Windows (as 10.9 TB) no problem. I got this product to use as a backup drive to a RAID 10 array in a Win10 PC used as a media server. What struck me about this product was that for ~$300 it was very hard to find an alternative that beat its value as a 1) large capacity, 2) great performing, and 3) convenient solution. Buying a single hard drive of 12 TB capacity isn't cheaper than this drive and I would still need some sort of enclosure to stash it in. I could have spent ~$50 less on some 10-14 TB WD My Book drive thing but that would have been roughly 1/2 the write speed of this drive (240 MB/s). And, though I could have cobbled together some secondary RAID array to use as a backup with multiple, cheaper disks, it certainly is far less convenient to maintain that than having a single thing for the backup solution. I wish I had bought one of these when it was priced at $250! UPDATE: I bought a second one of these, this time for my main PC. Modern PC cases have moved away from supporting 5.25" media drives and 3.5" HDDs. So, to open up flexibility for my next PC build, I have been trying to find a way to pull these things out of my build and connect them via USB. I found a nice OWC enclosure a couple weeks back for 4k UHD disk ripping drive. Recently, I kept trying to find some sort of drive enclosure to house HDDs and direct attach them to my PC. After spending hours looking at Orico, OWC, QNAP, etc enclosures, comparing USB speeds v. RAID support ... I remembered this product. Honestly, I couldn't come up with an easier way to get my 3.5" disks out of my PC case, have a great amount of storage, 200+ MB/s write speed, and almost zero hassle. I have no concerns about any noise issues as I doubt it will be louder than my PC fans under load. ... show more

  • WD 8TB Excellent Capacity and - I hope - WD Reliabiity
Size: 8TB Style: PC, PS4, & Xbox Pattern Name: Hard Drive
Copied 4.5 TB from my WD 5TB drive using 8C/16T, 4.75GHz mini-pc. Slow copying. The 8TB drive has more than 4X the physical volume of the 5TB. So it's big, much bigger than the mini-pc itself.

  • Great all around HDD
Size: 8TB Style: PC, PS4, & Xbox Pattern Name: Hard Drive
I ultimately settled on having this as my backup drive. Its capacity was right, and my much smaller but faster solid state drive was more appropriate for my somewhat more meager than average storage needs for games. Being a Mac user, I completely ignored any and all software that came with it, while it was completely reformatted with APFS to work with the proprietary Time Machine backup software. It is working perfectly. Some have noted that this might not be a very fast drive in practice. The reality is that speeds are largely determined by USB version and your system's associated firmware. This drive runs on USB 3.0, or roughly up to 5gb transfer speeds. My SSD, in comparison, runs on 3.1, which is up to 10gb transfer speed (aka double). That technically makes the Black drive the second-fastest drive I ever owned. In practice, though, I don't really notice the difference between 5 and 10gb speeds. It is simply a fast hard drive, no matter how many hairs some might want to split. Others have also noted that it seemed to be a noisy drive. Well, hard disk drives have physical parts that make noise. You have to spend a lot more -- and still get less -- for a silent SSD. When in use, the Black drive might be a touch louder than other's I've owned, but all HDDs I've owned sounded somewhat different. A running AC and computer audio drown the sound out most of the time. Overall, a great all around HDD that also has a lot of aesthetic personality. ... show more

  • Great price, my unit was noisy.
Size: 8TB Style: PC, PS4, & Xbox Pattern Name: Hard Drive
Got this for my Series X to store all my back-compat games, it works great! The speed is impressive for a HDD, it is definitely faster than my 4 year old 4tb Seagate ever was. The only issue I have with the drive is my unit is very loud when in use. It almost sounds like the disc is not balanced properly or it has a bad bearing. Hopefully it doesn't affect the longevity of the drive. Besides that it was a great purchase. ... show more
