Pretty good 16 TB external hard drive from WD!
This is a pretty good 16 TB external hard drive from Western Digital. I bought a 14 TB version from Best Buy in late 2020, but recently I replaced it with this larger 16 TB version for refreshed storage and extended warranty for next couple years. It has massive space to back up personal photos, videos, Windows system files, etc for multiple devices.

BIG WD Easystore 16TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive
This ext hard drive has been great as I'm able to store on it a lot of MP4 videos, WAV & MP3 audio files that I work with for my marketing and sales job. Otherwise my 2 GB SSD would have filled up a long time ago. It does need some time (3-4 seconds) to 'spin up' if you haven't accessed it in a while. And it does make some soft 'sounds' at points in the day but nothing distracting or loud enough that ambient office noise doesn't drown out. Would buy another one again as this fills up! 3TB used so far w/ 12 TB left.

Tons of storage for extra games movies and more
Tons of storage for all your videos music pictures and more. I have this as a backup storage on my gaming pc. Best part about this HD, it's very quite and works on both mac OS and PC. Also easy to install.

Excellent HD In Hiding
This drive is fast - very fast - for an external supposedly 5400 RPM hard drive. So that led me to dig into the drive a bit and do some research. WD doesn't really post a lot of info on the actual drive hiding inside these external enclosures, but from what I can see on at least the higher storage count drives 14TB-18TB, these are Ultrastar DC HC550 drives. That means they are in fact 7200 RPM helium-filled with a 512 MB cache and a 2.5 million hour MTBF - and used in data centers so they can take more punishment than your standard cheap every day run-of-the-mill hard drive. All of my drives go through an extended read/write torture test before they are put to use, which this drive passed at a maximum temperature of 50 C. It is doing its job backing up family photos and videos.

Huge boi
So far it is working great as a USB drive. Transfer and write speeds have not disappointed. It can be slightly noisy, but I don't mind it too much. I will probably end up shucking it and throwing the drive in my PC, which will hopefully muffle it's sound some.

High capacity, reliable, shuckable drives
Great shuckable drives. These are white label helium-enclosed CMR drives with the same hardware code as the Ultratsar HC550. These drives likely have different firmware to lower performance. I've shucked 13 of the 10TB model, 12 of the 16TB model, and 8 of the 14TB model. None were DOA and I haven't seen a single bad sector on any of the drives. Due to the helium-sealed enclosure, these disks idle at around 5-5.5W (~0.4W/TB) versus 2.5W/TB on my 4 TB 7200 RPM air HGST drives. They also run cooler than the air drives. As these drives are CMR, they can be used with good performance for ZFS or hardware/software RAID. I'm using these drives in a ZFS pool. Note: SMART shows that these are 5400 RPM drives but acoustic analysis indicates they spin at 7200 RPM.

U can shuck it and use as internal HDD
Fast, but noisy. Ive bought WD HDDs and almost had zero problems. You can shuck it and use as internal.
