Customers find the computer drive offers good value for the amount of data storage. It is quiet in operation and easy to set up and use. Many are satisfied with its storage capacity and ease of use.

NOT 22TB Only 20TB
I was shocked to find the 22TB drive had only 20TB. I was expecting a little under 22TB of useable space like most drives are under their advertised capacity but where can 2TB disappear?

    The 20TB I received in Australia, but sent from UK Amazon has the UK power adapter. No US or AU plug. No major issue for me as I put on an AU adapter. I knew this was likely before buying it. Took about a week to arrive. Packaged well. Hard drive is fairly quiet compared to my 16TB Seagate USB drive. Write speeds sit around 200-230MB/s for the first 25% of the filling of the drive (noting the speed will slow as it fills). Currently only filled to about 25% capacity. I am not shucking it so I cannot tell you what drive is inside. Either way it is quiet and fairly fast. Not too hot either. Assuming it lasts, I am happy with the product.

    The comments below are from when I originally purchased the product and had it for about 1 week I will leave those in. But now I am dealing with a dead drive so need to contact Western Digital.

    From one week after purchase:

    Only issue is well known... They will sell it in Australia but it does not come with an Australian plug. However if you contact WD they will send you an Australian plug. BUT be warned Western Digital seems to think they need to know everything about you in order to receive this plug. And they're automated support system is hilarious as it just pestors you constantly with emails.

    Lastly, The power adaptor they send which does have an Australian attachment is actually upside down?!?! This might be an issue depending upon your space at the power point.

    In short, I'm fairly confident that no one at Western Digital has ever set foot on this continental plate and used their products here. AU is an afterthought.

There is an audible noise generated every 5-10 seconds, which is apparently to be expected/normal operation of the Elements range of external hard drives. I might pull the drive out and put it inside my case. Comes with a proprietary power cable which is disappointing that it's not just USB-powered (should be one USB for power, one USB for data).

    M'n locale back-up van 2TB werd te klein en daarom deze aangeschaft. Ik had eerst een portable 2TB van Seagate. De kabelaansluiting vond ik niet helemaal stabiel genoeg en ben daarom voor een wat robuustere en minder transporteerbare deskvariant gegaan. Hij is wat aan de grote kant, maar doet wat hij moet doen, is plug-and-play en veel waar voor je geld. Ik ben er erg blij mee.
