Copies , flawlessly , and stays cool running for hours
Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB
Number of Items: 1
Picking up this hard drive was a breath of relief. Because I was running on a 2 TB USB 3 hard drive from 2012, and it's been sitting in the red zone at almost full, so I copied over everything to this drive for some breathing room, and now I can rest assured.There's room to grow for video editing and sound production and photography projects. Creative life can continue unmitigated by technical limitations. I will probably buy a second one of these so I can twin it. I have 2 computers, and I do different work on each of the computers, and sometimes 1's rendering. Will I jump on the other one? And in the end, I have a duplication of file so I can grab the same files on any computer for different projects and to guarantee that if one hard drive fails, you got the backup. I refuse to use any third party managing software.I just like plugging it in and going right to the Window that opens the drive. I have Zero complaints and I hope it has a nice long life and protects all of my data... The funny thing is, though I'm running Windows 10, they can't upgrade to 11, so it's an obsolete machine and Windows 7, which is never gonna touch the internet. Because that's my video editing and audio recording machine. So in the future, I will be picking up a machine for the internet Interface...where finished projects can go up To online profiles and collaborators, without jeopardizing the computer with all of the source material and my projects.

Great storage solution!
Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB
Number of Items: 1
I love this external hard drive! Its super easy to set up, just plug it in and go! You have the optional WD Discovery software you can install which will give you a 'window' of all the hard drives you have on your system. I only use Western Digital hard drives so this works perfectly for me! It doesnt take up any space, I keep it next to my desktop tower. I bought it in 2022 and now feel I need more storage so will be going for a 16gb and migrate some game/video files onto it. It works fine with Windows 10 and as I have said, Ive had it since 2022 and its still running great! Definately a good investment and storage solution for me!

Great hard drive. However, now over priced!
Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB
Number of Items: 1
This is a great hard drive & have had no issues with the drive itself since I purchased it. However, I needed a new cable since the short one it comes with wore out. I noticed that when I purchased this hard drive in January of 2024 I paid $129.99, and it has MORE than double in price in a year & a half. Just be aware of price gouging, because apparently things lately have doubled & tripled in price thanks to one man!

Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB

It's been a good drive, can't complain although I wish it had lasted a tad longer but CrystalDisk is showing a caution so I bought a new one. Sticking with Western Digital since I have have better luck with them than with Samsung.

Working hard 24/7/365 for over 3 years and still going strong... UPDATE: Now 5+ years!
Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB
Number of Items: 1
I use this drive 24/7/365 to store video from my home security cameras using BlueIris. This means that it is constantly in use and I have not had any issues. I have this drive set up as kind of a poor man's NAS (Windows share) so that all the other computers on my home network can use this drive as a centralized storage device for backups, documents and other files in addition to its security camera duties. I realize that these drives are not really intended for 24/7 constant writes and I almost expect it to fail at some given how hard I'm pushing it. I mirror the data at least once a week to another drive in case of a failure, but so far haven't needed it. It is still going strong after 3 years and 4 months. It seems really speedy too. I recently hooked this drive up to power monitoring. It uses about 6 watts of power which is pretty good given that is is always writing. With my electric rates that comes to around 1.4 cents per day. Well done Western Digital! UPDATE: After more than 5 years of 24/7 use. This thing is still going strong, but SMART status is reporting a few errors and is now marked with "caution." Still hasn't had a hard fail, just some sectors are going bad. I think it is time to retire this drive after more than 5 years of 24/7 use as my poor man's NAS. This drive is not designed for that kind of hard use, but it performed far beyond expectations. I am going to replace it with a WD Red Plus in a USB enclosure since the Red Plus is designed for 24/7 NAS use. Well done WD Elements! Enjoy your retirement.

A TON of storage for the money!
Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB
Number of Items: 1
This 6Tb hard drive is the answer to my mass storage needs. As a photographer and videographer, I have thousands of large media files that I wish to retain for customers for a long time. When I had my PC built, I chose a 1Tb internal drive, and later purchased a couple of portable drives for short-term and long-term backup. I was getting tired of juggling huge batches of files and deleting the oldest/least important, just not sure what to do next. When I saw the great price on this 6Tb drive, and it's reviews, I jumped on it. So far, I am very pleased. It's SILENT as far as these old ears can tell. It's super-easy to use, and after backing up a huge amount of files, it still has an enormous amount of space left. GET ONE. The only thing "missing" was that this Elements drive did not come with backup scheduling software. I didn't think of that at the time I purchased it, so I'm still giving it 5 enthusiastic stars.

Perfect in everyway
Memory Storage Capacity: 6 TB
Number of Items: 1
So far, so good. Good transfer speeds, perfect for backing up all the most important files. I've got tons of pictures and videos of my kids, wedding videos etc and I feel much safer, not only having them backed up to here, but on an external drive that I can grab in a second should (God forbid) a fire break out or some other kind of emergency where we had to leave the house fast. This gives me great peace of mind so that I don't have to worry about the computer frying or the cloud losing my storage. I would much rather rely on a tangible backup. This model is also nice because it is a clean drive. No frills, no software taking up space on it to run auto backups or anything like that. It comes completely blank, formatted, and ready for use. P.S. I don't trust anyone else with my storage other than Western Digital. I've been a customer for over 20 years and they've never failed me yet.
