| this maybe a bit heavy, and not that portable since it needs an outlet to be used, but its very compact, make seems very tough. i know the brand is reliable, transferring data is very fast, no matter the size, and its very easy to use - just plug and play. a definite good buy. |

| The Western Digital reputation had me purchase this drive, and it has lived up to expectations. Why not keep all the music you can find when for 78 bucks you can get a terabyte of storage. Highly recommend this drive! |
not happy with how it worked with windows 7

| The graphics on the software are nice, when it works. However, I could only get it to recognize my computer intermittently. I wanted to back up the family photos. I talked to their tech support and they told me to upgrade the firmware but wouldnt stay on the phone with me. I made numerous attempts to upgrade to a higher version, but that just didnt take. It would work sometimes but not consistently. I returned it and bought a segate instead and that works much better. |
So far so good. Only used once so far...

Pros:
1. Fairly large capacity for a fair price;
2. Easy connect with fast USB2;
3. No start buttons;
4. Small size.
Cons:
1. 2 TB turns out to be 1.81 TB... though still a good deal;
2. Lack of an accompanying backup software, although there are many free programs for download on the web... |
Very Good Value

From the time the postman handed me the box, to the time this drive was up and running, was less than 15 minutes.
I have the drive connected to the USB port on my Netgear WNR3500L wireless router, so I am using it as remote storage for all the computers in the house.
It works, it runs cool, it's easily accessible from all my computers, there is no preloaded junk on it, and it cost less than 70 bucks. What more can I say. |
