You can't say anything about reliability after a week.. I've had WD HD's that gave up after a month and a year, but also that have still been soliciting happily for 11 years.. What immediately struck me was the considerable vibration of the box. I already have a foam rubber mat under it .. very disturbing. Furthermore, it jumps into sleep mode really quickly and of course it takes a few seconds to get out (long enough to call it disturbing) It is connected to a Mac (in hindsight I would have preferred to have it attached to my Linux server with EXT filesystem) but re-installing 8tb... you don't just do that! Mac has been having a hard time with Samba shares for quite some time now .. so accessing remotely is possible but with a bit of nonsense (not WD's fault) Ultimately, I'm afraid this disc won't last long. Vibration is not a positive property of a hard disk.

It's a big and fast drive for the price and also has an on/off switch. It does make more noise when I compare it to the 2TB Hitachi I have.
