Great value (purchased the UK version)
I was looking at the 24 terabyte drive to begin with and found the 28 TB drive was cheaper at the time of my viewing. My plan is to consolidate several drives I have music, audiobooks, and photos on. When I connected the drive it was ready to go to work.Shipping was exceptionally quick and free.The only downside I found on the drive was the lack of a US power cable to connect to US wall plugs. When I got the drive I checked and found the plug is common enough and had a cord available. You can find the power cord here...https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Samsung-Toshiba-Notebook-Computer/dp/B07PDYBCQC/ref=sxin_16_pa_sp_search_thematic_sspa?content-id=amzn1.sym.8f2f40b3-26c0-4f88-be94-372390ff23da%3Aamzn1.sym.8f2f40b3-26c0-4f88-be94-372390ff23da&crid=2ZIZ4EELHHD7R&cv_ct_cx=2+prong+%5Bpower+cord&keywords=2+prong+%5Bpower+cord&pd_rd_i=B07PDYBCQC&pd_rd_r=3b0b9b38-ffa6-4e29-85f7-2aad2cfe4388&pd_rd_w=W7FlW&pd_rd_wg=5BtVg&pf_rd_p=8f2f40b3-26c0-4f88-be94-372390ff23da&pf_rd_r=8298PGJ5VCBTPE6ESX6M&qid=1678809267&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=2+prong+power+cord%2Caps%2C169&sr=1-2-364cf978-ce2a-480a-9bb0-bdb96faa0f61-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExTUtaUzlNME83TDhaJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMjY3NTA3MzVJOEoxTFlOSUpDUCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNjI4Nzc2MlVFSVg4SERHTVJMUiZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX3NlYXJjaF90aGVtYXRpYyZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=Drive meets all my expectations.

Massive Storage, Affordable, Reliable But No WD RED Drives.
Note: Falsely Advertised On Amazon As WD Red Drives. Came With Another Model Of WD Drives.The WD 36 TB (Usable 32 TB) Has 3 Raid Options To Pick From.Has Built In Hardware Encryption (Password Protection Future).Connectivity Is Via USB C, And The Box Had 2 USB Cables (USB C to A, and USB C to C Cable)Also Mine Came With 2 Power Cables (3 pin UK type and 2 pin round type).

Incredibly easy to use and a great price for the storage
I was concerned that this product page did not say anything about MAC compatibility, but I purchased it anyway. I was able to get it to fire right up and immediately put it into use. My only complain is that it came with some weird foreign power supply that will not work in the US. Luckily I have plenty of other drives so I was able to use one of the power supplies from those.

Reliabilty
I've had the best luck with WD drives. After trying a dozen cloud options for storing back-up data & photos, I gave up and dumped it onto this drive and stuck it in a safe deposit box at the bank. Much faster, cheaper, simpler, reliable, and accessible. Cloud storage of 10's of thousands of files sucks!!

Large abs cost effective
Large abs cost effective! Doesn’t come with an American wall plug though.

Electrical casing failure
This unit stopped working after I disconnected and reconnected the power to the unit. It's not usable now and I've only had use of it for about a month. Storage is good and I think functional but I can't access the data without a working electrical case to connect to it.I see no way of getting help with this since Amazon returns expired 7/5 and it took me too long to troubleshoot. This is a lot of money for a product that didn't last more than a couple of months.
