 Great Portable Hard Disk August 27, 2010
R. Grek
Pros:
* Great portable hard disk with a reputable brand name. We have another 2 portable and 1 normal WD hard disks and until now they have never failed us.
* Good looking and sturdy casing
* Simple to use with plug & play
* No external power supply...uses same usb for data transfer to power its self
Cons:
* Had to make a cover for it because the glossy black plastic cover gets scratched quite easily and soon wear and tear takes over its looks....this is purely aesthetic!
* WD driver that comes with this disk is quite annoying and I prefare to refrain from using it....but an installation window keeps popping up each time you plug in the device just before the plug and play window comes up
Suggestions
* Make a cover for it as soon as you get hold of it....I made one myself for it and mine is still in pristine condition and still looks perfectly glossy and new.
There are cheaper products on the market....but you wont be getting the same product quality as this device.
 V Good External Portable Hard Drive August 27, 2010
JDennis
This Hard Drive is of a v good size with excellent storage space. The only critisism is that it generally needs to be on a flat surface to operate correctly. It can occasionally have difficulties linking into Laptops if not horizontal. Otherwise, it is very good and has travelled round the world providing great storage.

M. Hughes (england)
when i first ordered this is was pleased, i thought it was really good looking and would be easy to use but it wouldn't work and i kept on getting error messages, and in the end i got bored with it and sent it back. its good looking but it should be easy to use like a memory stick, (with a memory stick you dont have to download some software)

works perfectly well and has lots of security, wd smartware..........amazing i would totally recommend this but the only downside is tat the lead is too small
Fantastic Product August 23, 2010
Woods
I have read a few reviews on here that are less than complimentary. Had I read these prior to buying i dont think I would have made my purchase. The drive is a quality product and I cannot fault it. The build quality is 1st class and it works well. The software that ships with the drive is very useful and is very easy to use. If you want a high capacity mobile drive then you need look no further. WD have done a good job here!
