WD_BLACK Western Digital 8TB パフォーマンス 内蔵ハードドライブ HDD - 7200 RPM、SATA 6 Gb/s、256 MBキャッシュ、3.5インチ - WD8002FZBX

Sometimes you gotta sacrifice silence for performance. This being a spinning disk it makes a bit of noise when reading/writing, however it's okay and fully functional. Great speed and useful for new builds.

In my experience Western Digital Black hard drives are the fastest, most reliable drives I have ever owned. I don't look anywhere else anymore after trying a competitor brand and having it fail within a year. For many, many years they have outlasted their storage capacity and been replaced only for that reason. Regular Smart Checks show them always functioning at full efficiency. For audio production I highly recommend.

I Purchased 2 Drives. 1 Worked and other had some manufacturing issue from the start. NO Return Policy, Lost Lots of Money on this.

I've been using this hard drive for several weeks now, and it has truly exceeded my expectations. If you work with large files like video projects, renders, or game libraries, this hard drive is an excellent investment. Loading and transfer times are fast for an HDD, and the 256MB cache makes a huge difference when moving large folders. It's a SATA drive, so don't expect the speed of an SSD, but within its category, it performs very well. I have it mounted in a tower for video editing and storing old projects, and so far, I've had zero annoying noises or overheating. It stays cool and stable. Something to keep in mind: this model is more expensive than a regular hard drive, but it's clearly built to last. If your workflow is demanding or you want a robust drive for your game or media library, the price is justifiable.

I got it on sale for an amazing price. I have used a WD Black 4tb in my old computer which is 7 years old and still works. These hard drives have pretty decent speeds for gaming if you own a large library.
