Model overview based on user reviews  
The WD My Book NEW series offers a range of storage capacities from 3 TB to 22 TB, catering to various storage needs. Users appreciate its beautiful design and lack of noise during operation. The device is praised for its speed and large storage volume, making it suitable for home use. However, some users have noted that it can heat up to 50+ degrees, especially in summer, which can be concerning. Additionally, the package may include a power supply with a Chinese plug, requiring an adapter purchase. Some users experienced issues with the included software, but overall, the hard drive is recommended for its performance and reliability.

I recommend the storage device. Previously bought the 6 GB version for series. I've been using it for more than half a year, a good stylish storage device.

good disk (mine is 4 TB)
responds well, looks beautiful))
heated up, especially in summer, to 50+ degrees... I don't know if this is normal, but it's scary...

8 terabytes, I think, should be enough for quite a while without needing to look for more space. It might not be mobile enough to toss into a pocket or a small bag, but it’s suitable for home use.
Volume
The package with the disk includes a power supply with a Chinese plug, without any adapter, so you’ll need to purchase an adapter with the disk. Also, there was some software on the hard drive for use with the disk. I say "some" because during installation it showed an error and didn't install, so I am using it in the usual way.
