Review: Fast, Reliable, Massive Storage - This drive is a beast. I bought it to consolidate scattered backups and media files from years of work — and it handled everything with room to spare. Speeds are consistent even under heavy loads, and Thunderbolt 3 makes a real difference. It’s quiet, cool, and built like a tank. Perfect for large video files, raw images, and project archives. Not cheap, but if you value reliability and capacity, it’s worth every cent. Great choice for professionals who don’t want to mess around with flaky storage.
Review: Warning! - this is formatted for Mac OS and will not be recognized by Windows. - The drive is excellent, but must be formatted for Windows. The online User Manual for this drive (G-Drive) at westerndigital.com contains detailed instructions to perform this step. The instructions refer to a Command Line prompt available by right-clicking the Start Menu, but I did not see this option for Windows 11. Instead, I use the [windows]+R key to bring up the command prompt. That allowed the necessary commands to be entered and the drive ultimately formatted correctly.

The drive is excellent, but must be formatted for Windows. The online User Manual for this drive (G-Drive) at westerndigital.com contains detailed instructions to perform this step.

### ⭐ Not happy
*by D***H on July 6, 2025*

Some background - I have a music studio and a photography studio. I have around 15 hi capacity drives - mostly all older G-Techs. I use these products a lot. I bought this SanDisk July 2024. Its sole purpose is to make 1 weekly secondary time machine backup to my photography Mac Studio - which I do every Sunday. The reality is that it will rarely switch on. It boots up sometimes. The unit is stored in its original packaging after performing a backup - it looks like new - the packaging looks like new. But it is so frustrating to use. Tonight it took 20 minutes to start the hard disk. Original cost was $788. Worst drive I have ever had - probably the most expensive as well. Positive note: once started it performs well.
