Review [Posted on 2008-09-29] Great product. I am a professional photographer and rely heavily in storing large files securely. So far I have had excellent luck with Western Digital products including my new 1TB external Hard Drive.
excelent [Posted on 2008-10-06] excelent seller had product sooner than i had planned and in the con dition stated great seller
Decent [Posted on 2008-10-07] i had to buy another one of these because my other short burnt when i but it in the outlet.
Great External Hard Drive, Good Price [Posted on 2008-10-07] It is a great hard drive! It makes no noise when in operation, and I can move files from the hard drive to my computer and back very quickly. I have copied all 500 or so of my dvd movies to it and it works great, haven't even filled it up half way. one downside is that is has to be plugged in to ac outlet, but it's not a big deal. overall great deal good for anyone looking to back up their computer, store their dvd and music library, or just to transfer files to another computer.
not reliable [Posted on 2008-10-08] I have bought four different WD external drives in this product family. Only one has been reliable. One died twice, having been "repaired" by WD while still in warranty. A second makes worrisome noise. The 1TB drives go asleep in 30 minutes after inactivity and cannot be awoken without restart.
Western digital internal drives, particularly the Raptor series, do not seem to have these reliability problems.
