## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the real size capacity of 6th hard drive  e.g 5.60tb.?**
A: This is to with the way drives sizes are calculated. We see drive sizes at TB but drives see it as TiB. 

Converting 8TB to 8TiB is 7.27596TB
Converting 6TB to 6TiB is 5.45697TB
Converting 4TB to 4TiB is 3.63798TB 

Hope this helps.

**Q: Is this compatible with XP**
A: XP? surely not.

**Q: By 'full system backup' does this include a system image & programmes etc as well as docs, pics, music ?**
A: Well, as its just an external drive,  there's no restriction on what you can store subject to capacity constraints.  HOW and WHAT to store is entirely up to you.   
Are you actually asking about software to accomplish these tasks???    If so,  WD let you download a freebie copy of Acronis True image from the WD support site.  Whether this can also be used for file backup/restore  is not something I can comment on but is it doesn't,  you could use the Microsoft supplied tools (with win 7, 8 and 10) to do this.   
Personally, I prefer Macrium Reflect. Although it can do file and folder backup as well as imaging disks,  I don't bother with file backup.   I do a full system image once per week, then differential images for the rest of the week. Given this, there's no point in performing file/folder backups since Macrium images can be mounted as temporary drives and the files/folders that are needed to recover from eg accidental deletions can be extracted from the mounted image.  I believe, but cant swear to Acronis True Image having analogous capabilities but I am referring to the full product  - whether the WD freebie version includes this capability is another matter!

**Q: hi will this work with ps4 pro thanks**
A: Confirming, works pretty nicely with my PS4 Pro. One caveat though: The hard drive may not properly switch off if the console is left on standby mode. Power the console off completely and you are fine.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent, great value, and reliable external hard drive.
*by R***S on 11 January 2022*

I've been using Western Digital drives for years, as anecdotally I've found them to be more reliable than Seagate. Thus far, this 14TB external drive is no exception. I regularly write and read data from this drive and find it to be more than capable of large data transfers whilst staying cool and quiet.Inside the enclosure is a white label 14TB drive, which I believe to be a varient of the WD Red NAS drives, which bodes well for reliability. Via USB 3.0, I am getting around 200mb/s read speeds and 180mb/s write speeds, which is excellent for a HDD, especially via USB.The drive isn't silent when operating, but it's certainly much quieter than my Toshiba N300 drive which easily drowns out the WD when both are being used. The drive also runs cool, topping out at around 45C when writing in an open air environment with plenty of ventilation.The only complaint I would have is that WD are still not using USB-C connectors, having to keep a specialised USB Micro-B cable around is a real pain when everything else I use has USB-C. It's a minor complaint, but the difference for a manufacturer to use USB-C over Micro-B is around 25p per connector, so it's definitely doable from WD's side.Pros:- Runs cool and quiet with proper ventilation.- Large capacity for the money.- Shuckable should you want to remove the drive from the enclosure (this does void warranty).- White label WD drive inside, similar to a WD Red NAS drive (but much cheaper).Cons:- USB Micro B.- Can slow down after an hour or so of solid writing, but you won't find a hard drive that doesn't do this.Overall, thus far I'm very happy with the drive, sustained writes maintain a decent speed and it stays cool and quiet when in use. I've had several external WD drives and all are still working to this day, so I have confidence that this one will continue to do so too. Though if you have crucial data, you should always back it up, no drive will last forever!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works well
*by A***R on 25 June 2025*

works well . a bit noisy like all western digital drives. fast transfer speeds

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Value For Money
*by L***N on 5 April 2017*

I needed lots of storage space and so I purchased two of these. They are good products. However. as my computer shut down unexpected in the middle of using one, one corrupted within a few weeks of its purchase. I could still see what was on it but could not add new folders etc. I purchased a third and copied everything from the corrupted one on it. This worked perfectly. I then re-formatted the corrupted drive and it was as new. Since then I have had no trouble with any of the three drives - two hold massive amounts of data and the third I am saving just to rescue any possible future issues! Would have given the devices five star had the drives been able to cope with a computer shutdown in the middle of storage without corrupting.
