Store all your nice vacation photos in high quality on the WD My Book 8TB. For example, you can store about 900,000 photos or 1,000,000 songs in MP3 on this My Book. Automatically make backups of your files thanks to the WD Smartware Pro software. The WD My Book does this quietly in the background while you're working, so you don't have to worry about it. Because the My Book looks like a book, you can stylishly conceal it between your other books on your desk. And with the 3.5-inch size, you can easily take the WD My Book with you in your backpack together with your laptop.

Read and write speed is fine, better than my Synology NAS. Streaming .mkv files (blu ray rips of 30 gb) is also nice. A lot of space. Downloading to this disc is sometimes problematic...it seems like he needs to wake up before he writes it.

Since the playstation 4 was already full of games after half a year, I needed expansion. I was first looking for a Seagate Drive specifically for ps4, but it was out of stock, so I went for this one. Since the terabyte of the ps4 was quickly full, I immediately opted for 8 terabyte and I have not regretted it yet. Connecting was very easy and it works perfectly with the ps4. We can continue for a while!
