Awesome and reliable product
I have purchased this on Oct 2020, I using it for DIY NAS with custom build Tiny PC and mounted through the USB. this is running 24/7 from past 4 years never had any issues in accessing the data and speed is very good as i have the Bottle neck of 1gbps which is the 1G network adapter.Now planning for purchase the second drive same 6tb, as i would change my HDD for every 4 years to safeguard my data.

SMR HDD at a decent price for Backup applications
I intend to use this drive for backup and archiving my RAW photos. It is good enough for this application. But if you want to shuck it for use in a NAS for media storage, probably not the best option. A Seagate NAS drive would be a better choice even if it is costlier. Earlier, WD used to put a red label Server grade CMR HDD inside. The one I received recently is a basic SMR drive with white label. A bit disappointed but still a decent buy for the price I paid.

âââââ Reliable and Spacious Storage Solution for All Your Data Needs
I recently purchased the Western Digital My Book 6TB External Hard Drive, and it has proven to be an outstanding addition to my digital storage arsenal. Hereâs a detailed look at why this drive stands out:What I Appreciate:Massive Storage Capacity: With 6TB of storage, this drive offers ample space for all my files. From large video files and extensive photo libraries to countless documents and backups, it handles everything with ease. Itâs a great solution for those who need substantial storage for personal or professional use.Fast USB 3.0 Performance: The USB 3.0 interface ensures fast data transfer speeds. Moving large files and performing backups are quick and efficient. Even when transferring huge video files, I experienced minimal lag and impressive throughput.Reliable Brand: Western Digital has a strong reputation for reliability, and this drive is no exception. Itâs designed to keep my data safe, and so far, it has performed flawlessly without any hiccups.Easy Setup: The My Book drive is simple to set up. Itâs a plug-and-play device, which means I was able to connect it to my computer and start using it immediately without any complicated installation processes.Automatic Backup Software: The included WD Backup software is intuitive and user-friendly. It offers easy scheduling for automatic backups, which gives me peace of mind knowing my data is continuously protected.Robust Build Quality: The drive has a solid, sturdy construction. It feels well-built and designed to withstand regular use. The sleek black design also looks professional and fits well with my other devices.Things to Consider:Requires External Power: The My Book requires its own power supply. While this isnât a deal-breaker for me, itâs something to be aware of if youâre looking for a more portable solution that can run off USB power alone.Size and Weight: Itâs slightly larger and heavier than some other external drives. Itâs perfect for a stationary setup, but if you need something highly portable, you might want to consider a smaller drive.No SSD Speed: This is a traditional HDD, so it doesnât have the speed advantages of an SSD. For most purposes, the performance is more than adequate, but if you need the absolute fastest data access, an SSD might be a better choice.Final Thoughts:The Western Digital My Book 6TB External Hard Drive is an excellent investment for anyone in need of reliable, high-capacity storage. Its combination of large storage space, fast USB 3.0 interface, and trusted brand reliability makes it a standout choice for backing up important data, storing extensive media collections, or expanding your computerâs storage.I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a robust and dependable external storage solution.

Sending defective product.
Please dont purchase from this seller first they sent defective product. Then asking to request replace through wd service center. And service centre saying we will send u used product as a replacement we cant send new drive. Even i got defective.Amazone also not helping they saying u can only ask replace from Wd center. Or ask them for denied certificate. They are not giving new product nor giving denied certificate. So i am helpless from both side.Please my request to all the customers dont purchase this kind of a costly product direct from this seller or amazone. Better but from dealer atleat they will give u replacement if u get defect product.My 18000 waste because of thi fraud site.

Don’t buy.
Heater up very fast. If you want to store your data in it and forget buy it.But if you want it in a regular basis it is not for you.Instead go for NAS or cloud storage. Performing tasks with the data stored in this HDD is very slow. Compared to other HDDs. And after heated up it literally STRUGGLES to run.Minimal vibration: I kept it on my table. It vibrates the whole table. Try to put it on a cushion like thingNeeds extra power source: First get an extra plug to connect before buying.No matter what “lookwise” it looks amazing, a beast like.Size: A 3.5 inch HDD inside the cover.Weight: almost a kg may be.
