Review: Excellent hard drive - The drive functions perfectly. Not the fastest, but that is to be expected of this type of storage. The perfect choice for someone wanting a large amount of storage at a good price.
Review: Huge external HDD great for backing up tons of data - It's a big external HD. It's big. It's external. It's a Hard Drive. Need a lot of space on one external drive? Then get this. I've only had it about a week, but it seems to work just fine. It makes no noise when not in use. It makes minor/minimal sounds when copying large amounts of data to it. It makes a noticeable brief buzzing sound when 'waking' from standby that only lasts 2-3 seconds. Did I say this was external? Did I say it has a high capacity? Did I say it is a hard drive? Oh, the design is black and stands on its side, and doesn't give off any noticeable heat. As for speed, beats me. Seemed normal speed. Reality is that any time you get a drive this large, the primary purpose is likely as a backup - or a backup to a backup, and the only time speed might matter in that case is the first time you're backing up a large amount of data. After that, I'm sure you'd never notice either way. I'm happy I bought it. I got it at price/GB that is impossible to beat. Would buy again - but won't need to any time soon, because it's big. (Did I mention that already?)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ton of space, reasonable price, occasional noise
*by B***H on December 24, 2025*

I recently picked up a 22TB external hard drive, and so far it’s been a great value for amount of storage you get. The capacity is huge for the price, which makes it appealing option if you need a lot of space without spending a fortune. Physically, it’s a typical external drive—nothing oversized or bulky—so it fits easily on a desk or shelf. One thing to note, though: it can get a bit loud at times. I wouldn’t recommend keeping it running full‑time in a quiet space like a bedroom office unless you don’t mind some background noise. My main use is offsite backups, so I only plug it in for short periods. Because of that, it’s too early to say much about long‑term reliability. Performance‑wise, it’s not the fastest drive out there, but it’s perfectly adequate for backup tasks and general storage. Overall, if you need a ton of space at a reasonable price and don’t mind occasional noise, it’s a strong choice.
