Customer Reviews

cant complain, works great
seems to be working out well, no complaints, i like that it does not need to have a seperate power source. they could however do a redesign to make the cable somehow a solid part of the drive, with the option of still being able to use another cable, i dunno, something like that might be nice. Overall, a good solid drive.

Tough drive!
Not much to report after owning this drive for a bit over a year. Not a single problem out of it. I used it on Windows, OS X, and Linux systems without a hitch.

A wonderful (accidental) test of it's durability was a few months ago. I was in a rush to class and grabbed my laptop without realizing the drive was still connected. Before the computer could suspend (IE the drive was still spinning) I lifted the laptop up, swinging the drive by the cable across my desk and into my rather hard plastic chair. Knowing I'd killed the drive, I picked it up and brought it with me to run a few tests. No funny noises, no read errors, no bad sectors. It's been running fine since!

Honestly, about my only real complaint with this drive would be the case material. While the glossy black looks very nice, it gets fingerprints on it and scratches very easily. Simply trying to wipe it off tends to put very small scratches in the finish.

We had this product for 6 months and it suddenly stopped working with no warning. I lost my entire backup data. The product came with a limited 4 months warranty. Outside the warranty Western Digital require $14/- for technical support per incident, but no assurance of recovering the data. So baisically we have to discard this.
