WD_BLACK 4TB High Performance 3.5" Internal Hard Drive, 7200 RPM Class, SATA 6 GB/s, 256MB Cache, 5 Year Warranty

Very easy to replace failing WD 2T drive with this 4T one. Videos on YouTube on how to do it including W10 set up. This one much faster. Last one lasted about 6 years which I believe is to be expected on a drive used for photos and video. Cheaper than the cloud. Job done!

Good stuff

Lifesaver.

WD Black's are more reliable and faster than their blue and green counterparts. However, they are quite loud when reading/writing data which can sometimes be distracting. It is also sometimes loud when idle which is strange. I purchased the 4TB model and use it specifically for gaming (I moved my steam, origin, and GOG libraries to the new hard drive). Overall I'd recommend this hard drive for gaming if the noise issue isn't a problem for you. I don't really hear it when I'm gaming or watching films etc as the sound of the game is usually loud enough to cover the hard drive sound. I also checked the hard drive for bad sectors etc. When I received it. All was good!

The fastest mechanical hard drives available. I'd highly recommend, I had all my games and media on the 4TB and it was perfect for my needs. Slightly noisier than others, but its speed makes up for it. I used headphones anyway so I didn't care! Great warranty too.

ITS a best company for excellent HDD.

As this item has developed a fault I contacted WD for a replacement three times. No response from them whatsoever. A sham. Do not pay over the odds for a unit with 5 year warranty support when the manufacturer offers no support for the product. Last time I purchase WD.

Works perfectly and as expected for a reasonable price.

صوته عالي اوي كل شويه اكن فيه حاجه بتخبط بشكل مزعج ومش لاقي اوبشن اني ارجعه او ابدله حتي

Bought this drive as a replacement for another drive. Using this for photo and video editing. Therefore need speed and reliability as well as capacity. This drive brings all of the above. Performs very well so far. As always tested with the WD tools. Depending on the source I get around 280 MB/s.

Die Western Digital Black mit 4 TB Speicherkapazität ist eine klassische 3,5"-HDD für den Desktop-Einsatz und überzeugt durch eine einfache Handhabung sowie zuverlässige Performance. Der Einbau ist unkompliziert, sowohl in Standard-Gehäusen mit SATA-Anschluss als auch in externen Gehäusen problemlos möglich. Die Festplatte wurde vom System sofort erkannt und war nach wenigen Sekunden einsatzbereit. Mit 7200 U/min, 64 MB Cache und einer SATA 6 Gb/s-Schnittstelle liefert sie ordentliche Transferraten für eine mechanische Festplatte. Sie eignet sich gut für große Datenmengen wie Spielebibliotheken, Medienarchive oder Projektdateien, bei denen nicht zwingend SSD-Geschwindigkeit benötigt wird. Die Zugriffszeiten und Übertragungsraten liegen im oberen Bereich dessen, was im HDD-Segment zu erwarten ist. Lautstärke und Wärmeentwicklung bleiben auch unter Last im normalen Rahmen. Im Dauerbetrieb zeigt sich die WD Black stabil und zuverlässig – ideal für alle, die großen Speicherplatz mit klassischer Technik suchen. Fazit: Eine solide und performante Desktop-Festplatte mit einfacher Inbetriebnahme und guter Alltagstauglichkeit. Wer viel Speicherplatz mit robuster Technik braucht, macht mit diesem Modell nichts falsch.

Mi única queja sería que el disco es versión oem así que no viene en caja ni nada, solo su bolsa y no luce ni de cerca tan bien como en las imágenes de la publicación, pero en cuanto al desempeño no hay queja alguna, el disco alcanza velocidades de 250Mb/s, es excelente para ser un hdd, en la carga de juegos de hecho se nota poco la diferencia en comparación con un ssd.

I needed a bigger HDD for the huge influx of 4K footage I'm working with. Got it in a cardboard box and a non-static/spill-proof metallic sleeve. Two plastic shock absorbers were located at the top and bottom of the drive. Date of manufacture was dated 20 FEB 2022. Looks like they're pushing in the new stuff now. Installation was easy, just crack open the PC case and slip it into the rack. I knew about the noisy reputation that WD Black Drive's had, so I ordered a couple of noise-isolating screws and rubber washer to help mitigate the impending cacophony. After slamming everything together, I shoved it all into the PC. Storage size and transfer rate is top-notch, I can both watch and edit 4K movies with no trouble at all. The only problem (which is honestly a non-issue for me, but maybe not for you) is the noise it makes. Every so often, maybe every 5-10 seconds the disk head moves and you can hear a slight "thunk". You get used to it after a while, and this IS a performance drive, so noise like that is to be expected. Might be a bit jarring to people who weren't around when your computer sounding like an old muscle car starting up was standard. When going through heavy loads, the HDD spins to a high speed, but thanks to those noise-isolating screws and washers, I barely hear it. And since I'm only using this drive for editing, when I'm not editing Windows automatically turns off the drive so the "thunking" isn't around unless the drive is on and in use. No "scratching" or similar noises have been heard from the drive yet, and I've been using it heavily since Day-1. Only Whirling of the disks and the every present "thunk". This will give you good storage and speed with the only trade-off being noise. Keep that in mind as you eye that "Add To Cart" button.
