Review on πŸ’Ύ Efficient Data Storage: Western Digital 8TB EASYSTORE External HDD (WDBCKA0080HBK-NESN) by Julian Banks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ultra-quiet 8TB external USB drive.

I bought a WD 8TB EASYSTORE external hard drive to replace a crappy 8TB WD My Book Desktop external hard drive that I ordered and returned. I only kept the My Book Desktop drive for a few hours, which was long enough to convince me that it was low-quality junk and I would return it for a full refund. Revain has been great about refunds and the return process was so easy. On the other hand, the 8TB EASYSTORE is very quiet, while the 8TB My Book Desktop had an annoying low-frequency vibration that could be heard and felt when it was sitting on my desk. . In comparison, EASYSTORE is completely silent and I don't even notice it. The 8TB WD EASYSTORE costs more than the 8TB My Book Desktop hard drive, but it's worth it to me. Rumor has it that the 8TB EASYSTORE uses a higher-end WD Red NAS drive, known for its quiet and reliable performance.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Not as thick as other models
