This is my second WD Black 7200 RPM drive that I’ve owned, and the first that I’ve bought from B&H. On this order, the drive was DOA. It would spin-up, but I could not initialize it and ultimately RMA’d it and used a WD Gold 7200 RPM drive for my backup prior to upgrading my OS. The Rona has slowed B&H down a bit, but they were fabulous in granting my RMA and sending out a second Black drive that works as expected. Thank you B&H. I use these as external drives for offline backups. I house these in external drive enclosures as single units and only bring them online to add files (remove from my RAID drive) or to pull from backups as we need them. We edit at least 30 GB of video files per week and including export files, need to move at least 50 GB of files offline per week. In the 7 years that we’ve been doing this, all of our WD drives have worked flawless. Transfer speed from my RAID 5 via USB3 to a single external WD Black is around 120 MB/sec on large sequential files.

The drive works flawlessly, the price was the lowest I could find, and it arrived quickly in perfect condition. Unfortunately, I could not use it to completely replace the existing 1TB hard drive. Due to the age of the machine, the largest drive it could support was a 2TB C drive. So I now have 5TB total storage. Not exactly the solution I wanted, but certainly not the drive’s fault.

WD 6TB Black – November 2020… I have been using Western Digital Black HDD since they first offered them. Never had a problem. I have not had any die on me, I replace them after 5 years. This month 11/2020, B+H had the best price, free shipping, no sales tax. I bought four (4) 6 TB to replace 5+6 year old and smaller HDDs. I look forward to when WD has 6 TB SATA SSDs and B+H sells them at the best price.

These drives are my preference for those systems that need to meet high performance standards. The drives are backed by an excellent 5-year warranty that is hard to beat. I won’t use any other drive.

This HD was purchased to replace another unit that my software said was going bad. It will be mostly used to store and work with photos and video. The unit was very easy to install and operate. So far, there have been no problems.

This retail kit contains the exact same drive as the bare drive kit. Surprisingly, it is less expensive too. Win-win!

Only for backup issues, after a few hours of using it, a strange noise can be listened. No access to the disk.

It’s louder than the 1TB HGST it replaces but works well. No drive errors were reported once I got it up an running. Installation was quick. It came with mounting screws, but no SATA cable. The included True Image software made a painless duplicate of the original drive. Windows 8.1 reports 3.63TB of total space after formatting.

I am in the process of replacing a bunch of HGST drives for my Synology NAS which are starting to show signs of age. I now have 3 of these and about ready to get one more. They are quieter and run cooler than the old HGST drives they are replacing. B&H always superlative service and super good with delivery etc. Of course can’t be upset until a drive prematurely fails but so far so good. Will buy more, would highly recommend this drive and B&H

I bought 2 of the 6TB drives and had them sent to New Zealand. One just started making strange noises as soon as it was installed. It’s cost me a small fortune to send it back. The only reason I didn’t just give it 1 star is the working one seems quite fast and quiet. Hopefully the replacement can perform similarly.

Just as I expected, the 6TB black WD drives were easy to install and fast restoring data from the old drives (which were 4TB black WD drives.

I recently purchased three of these to replace 6-year-old Seagate drives on my sound production computer (one for the OS, one for audio, one for sample/video files). The Seagate drives worked perfectly for me; my main motivation for the upgrade was disk space. I contemplated getting an SSD for my primary drive, but I probably would have only noticed a marginal increase in performance with the age of my MOBO. Other than digging around in the computer chassis, installation was pretty straightforward. I used WD’s free True Image cloning software (available through their website) to copy all of the data from my old drives. I was slightly concerned about copying over the OS, but everything worked without a hitch. I have already used these drives in several editing sessions and am happy with their performance. And to my delight, they’re even quieter than my previous drives. If and when I upgrade my computer, I definitely feel comfortable bringing these drives along.

I bought this to backup my new computer. Im using it in a dock. Ive only wriiten to it once. The drive is exceptionallly quiet in the open dock. Ive alway had success with WD w/o any drive failures in the past.

Replaced internal 1tb 5400 rpm drives (3) in desktop computer. Immediate increase in system speed. Increased storage capacity is very welcome.

I purchased two of these drives. My ASUS deluxe x299 motherboard cannot see them. It sees all kinds of WD drives, but not these new ones. In my research on the web I see that many people are having issues with these drives. I wish I would have done my research before I bought them. Now all I have is two $200 door stops.

Installed this in a new build as storage with an SSD as boot drive. Just works flawlessly as have all my WD drives in the past. I went with the Black for performance since some of my programs will be installed on this drive rather than SSD.

I was in need of replacing an aging 5TB hard drive used for games on a computer. I have got int he habit of replacing hard drives PRIOR to failure. I lost some critical data off a back up drive that was aging. I quite enjoyed the fact that B&H offers a RETAIL drive for less than the costs of a BARE OEM drive offered by the competitors. Speeds of drive are great, no crazy sounds, quite and efficient.

4 Terabytes for an affordable price, and a 5 year warranty on top of that… I keep coming back for another one as my client needs grow.
