Great product; may require WD-40 to work properly

Overall a great product, but as another as said, the buckles will sometimes slip even if prepared as instructed. One quick spray of WD-40 fixes this right away. Sturdy rings, heavy duty straps, simple buckle design. Excellent for gymnastic/bodyweight exercise.

Been working pretty well.  But, don't overlook those input filter timeout settings. If it sees a glitch, it will lock up the drive dir/step with an internal error, set filter to 20usec, not a problem anymore.

It worked poorly until I sprayed it with WD-40. It would have helped to have some written info on how to deploy it.

This is good product. First i thought that it was expensive, but when i used it, i came to know that value of the product and how safely and clean it will keep the WD storage device.

Good ol' WD40. You have to have some in your house.

The first WD drive shipped by Amazon wasn't displayed in Windows with a drive letter, and the second one shipped did the same. Then with research I discovered that I need to use the disk management utility in Windows to initialize, assign a drive letter, and quick format. I don't recall having to do this on other drives I've purchased. I would wish that the WD instructions mentioned this, either in the quick install or online. I had to search to figure it out. OK, OK, maybe I should have known this, BUT they could have made it easier. So far.....one day, drive works fine, and is quiet. I cannot speak to long term reliability at this point. I always purchase WD drives because of my belief that they are more reliable. We shall see.

The Drobo unit works well.  My coworkers have depended on Drobo NAS units for years, and they are dependable and reliable.  A very good unit.

I would have given it 5 stars for the product.  I bought the one that was bundled with 5x 2TB HDDs.  However, the seller did not specify the brand and type of HDD, so I assumed it was going to be something that came installed from factory, and would be NAS optimized HDDs.  Unfortunately, the seller bundled five Western Digital Green (WD20EZRX) drives, at a price that was WAY marked up.  I could have saved about $100 if I had just bought them separately.  Plus, there are other similarly priced HDDs that would be much better for a NAS - at that price, I could have gotten five 2TB WD Red2 (WD20EFRX), which would have been better.

The product are good.  The price just isn't a good deal for what comes in the bundle.  I would recommend buying the Drobo unit separately, and getting better HDDs yourself.

Nice quiet drive.  Works well.  Never had a problem with WD.  Did I mention it is quiet?  Did I mention it works well?  Whats with this minimum word count stuff in reviews now?

I've used a lot of WD drives.  I have 3 of these 6TB drives in a Windows parity array.  Seem to be doing well so far.

Great drive, but be sure to put it through its paces early to find out if it needs to be replaced.  Not only can the drive be bad, but there could have been an issue during the shipping and handling from Amazon.  Do a full format, run the WD diagnostic tools and check the S.M.A.R.T. readings on the drive.

If it isn't fast and quiet, there may be a problem.  If you're hearing odd clicks from it, that's not a good sign.  If the drive turns itself off after some mild activity, it may have a heating problem or bad drive controller.  The drive should not get hot enough to need to shut off under regular usage, even if your case doesn't have the best airflow.

My drive shut itself off two times about a week apart and it had decent airflow.  None of my other drives have ever done this.  Up until it shut down, you'd think the drive was mint.  WD will be happy to replace the drive for you.

My WD TV Live Hub failed, but it wasn't the hard drive that went bad, so I put it in this.  The drive was a bit big, so I had to tape it closed, but that's not the case's issue.  It's been on for a few days straight now with no issues streaming.

This is a great USB 3.0 hub for the price point. There is one big caveat that I've discovered- it probably shouldn't be used with external drives, even if they are separately powered. I had a 3.5" AC-powered HDD plugged into this, and it was causing the hub to disconnect once every few hours. I have no idea why this would be, but if you search other reviews for "disconnect", you'll see it's a common issue. I appreciate that Anker support is proactive about getting replacements to people, but it seems like the real solution is to fix the dang product, or put up a disclaimer "not for use with hard drives."

EDIT: Added one star thanks to Anker's aggressive support response. They pointed out that there is a disclaimer in the product description that it should not be used with "power-consuming hard drives". I'll give them that, but I still think this is misleading. Everyone knows that you can't use USB-powered hard drives with a non-powered hub, but what bothers me is that I can't even use a hard drive that has a dedicated power supply.

Used to get my Dell Laptop running again. I had the WD Blue 1TB previously that failed within a year, still need to see if it is worth trying to get them to fix it. It was easier getting Amazon to ship me a new one.

This is a great product and has worked very well with no problems with drivers.  Windows 10 does very well with gaining drivers for peripherals.  I checked this using ATTOdiskbenchmark on windows 10 with a ssd and sata to usb 3.0 adapter and the read and write speeds were above 400 megabytes per second proving that this in fact uses the usb 3.0 protocol.  If however you want to connect more that one usb device to this that draws as much power as the usb 3.0 protocol the included power adapter is needed as the express port can not power larger devices.  Overall I would recommend this product rather than other express card to usb 3.0 adapters because it has worked so well and the company seems more reputable.

This is a great device and I'm quite pleased with it.  Be advised that you need a Windows computer to get the files onto it that you want to play.  I run Linux and assumed that I could ignore the usual "Windows only" warnings for this product because I know that I can use a USB hard drive easily with my computer.  The Mvix will not accept files from a Linux computer in spite of trying everything I could think of (the manufacturer's website comfirms this).  I ended up using a USB drive  enclosure to format the hard drive and to put the files on it, then I put the hard drive in the Mvix and everything plays ok.  It's a lot of trouble, but it works.  Want more files?  Take the drive back out of the Mvix and put it back in the USB drive enclosure.  Repeat as desired.

I love the device, but if you're not a Windows user, there's a tad of trouble involved.

Western Digital Enterprise drives work in my servers.  I replaced the original Seag**** drives at the times they
failed, (which was an all to common occurrence), with WD drives and have never regretted the move.
All the servers with Seag*** drives suffered from early failure and ultimately required
replacement. (with WD drives). I have only had 2 WD failures in over 15 years experience on
several systems.  A great track record for any brand drive,  Warranty exchanges have always
been painless with cross shipping provided.  I recommend WD Enterprise drives strongly.

This enclosure works fine with an older Seagate drive, but I first tried a newer WD Green drive and once installed, my computer didn't recognize the drive, although it acknowledged a USB device was connected.  I think this might be an issue unique to the Green series of WD drives as others have had issues using them in a variety of enclosures.  I dinged a half star for that issue, and another half for the way the unit is assembled.  The 2 screws that hold the end onto the enclosure are fairly tiny and easy to lose. I found a dropped one in my carpet with a magnet okay, but if I hadn't I would have needed to request a replacement screw and then wait for it.

BTW I contacted JacobsParts and they were nice and requested info on my drive so that they can work on the compatibility issue.
