Smaller portable drives were much slower the Toshiba Canvio Connect II ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) scored 1,450. To put that into perspective, the Seagate Innov8 was only 115 points ahead (2,115) using its USB-C interface. On the Windows-based PCMark 7 secondary disk test, it earned a decent score of 2,000 points. I tested the My Book on both a Mac and a Windows PC. The My Book comes with a three-year warranty, longer than the two years you get with the Seagate Backup Plus. The interface is a bit slower than Thunderbolt 2, seen in the LaCie 5big Thunderbolt 2 ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) and the Promise Pegasus2 R2+ ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window), but those drives are specialized for media content creation, and are priced much higher. The My Book has a single USB 3.0 interface and it is formatted exFAT out of the box, so it will work equally well with both macOS Sierra and Windows desktops and laptops. That translates to 3 cents per gigabyte for the My Book, much less than most of the drives we've tested over the past couple of years, including the $349.99 Innov8 and the 5TB Seagate Backup Plus ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) (both 4 cents), the latter our former top pick. (Opens in a new window) Read Our Western Digital My Book Duo (8TB) ReviewДЄt its $249.99 list price, the 8TB My Book is much less expensive than the same-capacity Seagate Innov8 ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window). You'll need a spare power outlet, since the My Book needs its (included) power adapter to operate. That's compact, but still made to sit on your desktop rather than fit into your pocket. It measures 6.7 by 1.9 by 5.5 inches (HWD) and weighs 2.02 pounds. The My Book ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) shares its vertical orientation with older WD drives like the 2012 iteration of the My Book Duo ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window), though its scalloped black polycarbonate sides are more like those on the recently redesigned My Passport ($184.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) drives. With a good mix of capacity, pricing, and performance, it's a shoo-in as our latest Editors' Choice for desktop external hard drives. It's backward-compatible with current and older Macs and Windows PCs, a plus right now as USB standards are changing. The 8TB version of the Western Digital My Book ($249.99) can hold thousands of hours of video, or millions of MP3s or photos.

If you're addicted to downloading videos and snapping up every game you can find online, chances are you need inexpensive, voluminous storage to house it all.
