I got the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newegg.com\/Product\/Product.aspx?Item=234-000G-000W5\">WD Black 6TB,<\/a> the reviews I read online were great. The reviews and specifications I read online were phenomenal and I could not wait for it to arrive via mail. Upon delivery the package looked a little more on the rough side. The price for this specific HDD was $246.99. The price per gigabyte was approximately six cents.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.nationaltrail.k12.oh.us\/ittech\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Picture1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-1920\" src=\"http:\/\/wordpress.nationaltrail.k12.oh.us\/ittech\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Picture1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"217\" height=\"163\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAs I connected it into my PC tower things went very smooth.
