I Loved My EasyStore so much, I Purchased Another!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second 14 TB EasyStore. I needed another external storage unit for archiving of my massive media collection. Its speed, near silent operation and slim footprint. Given its stellar performance and price, it was a no-brainer in my purchasing decision in purchasing an additional EasyStore.

Great/Reliable External Hard Drive.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item has been great. It is fast and reliable. I was able to grab it on sale, which was awesome. Great for storing games, music, and movies. I purchased a 2 TB one of these about 10 years ago and its still kicking, so I am sure this 14 TB will be around for years. Total Space is 14 TB, but Windows breaks it down to slightly above 12.7

A lot of storage at a great price. quick access
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do a lot of photos and video editing. Canon T6i, phone pics, drone and gopro stuff. A lot of junk to save. I try and delete the junk that is pure junk most that isn't a lot as I never know exactly what might come in handy down the road a spell. I recently rebuilt my desktop computer and the NVMe drives only go up to 2TB, some 4 and you can actually get 8 but you are talking 1200 buck minimum. ain't nobody got time for that. So I saw that this external drive was actually on sale at BB for right about 200 bucks. Got it to store all that extemperanious stuff on and as a back up for all the good stuff too. It is relatively quite, and pretty fast too so fits the bill. Got it plugged into the back USB port on my new computer and have it sitting on the back of my desk out of the way, but it's hooked up and ready to go whenever I need it.

It hasn't hiccupped at all. I love the size / cost ratio and have had great value from all the WD externals I have purchased over the years.

Q: QuestionIs this compatible with iMac?
Asked by TONY.
- A:Answer Yes, I bought mine to use as a Time Machine backup for my iMac. As with most external drives you might buy, however, it comes formatted for use on a PC. It does include backup software that can be installed on a Mac, but I would recommend against that unless you aren't interested in using the iMac's built-in backup software. If you intend to use this as a Time Machine backup, it should be reformatted using Apple's Disk Utility, which can be found in the Utilities folder inside the Applications folder, or simply click on the Spotlight eyeglass on the right side of the menu bar and type Disk Utility. After plugging the drive into your iMac, it should appear in the list of disks on the left side of the Disk Utility window. Click on the drive and then click on the "Erase" tab, select the format you wish to use and type in the name you wish to give your new disk drive, then click on the Erase button. Time Machine backups need to be formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and if you wish, Encrypted. Encryption provides another layer of security if there's a chance someone might break in and steal your Mac - otherwise it's not necessary. Once it's reformatted, your iMac will probably ask you if you wish to use the disk with Time Machine, so just click Yes. If you plan to use this for mass storage for something like storing your photos or other media, you can use Mac OS Extended (Journaled), or you might want to use Apple's newer APFS format, which provides better file management and faster searching, but it's only compatible with newer iMacs running Mojave or Catalina.

Q: QuestionIs this a 14 TB? The photos above show only 12.7 TB available !!
Asked by SherryS87.
- A:Answer Operating systems usually report drive capacity in a scale based on powers of 1024. However, drives are usually advertised with the capacity quoted in a shorter scale based on powers of 1000, resulting in a larger number. This accounts for most of the difference.
