Summary: AMAZING HDD
Comment: I boiught this item about 4 YEARS AGO!!! (250GB)- Its just never stops going. Its been with me in 4 moves of address. I once spilled a whole mug of coffe on it - whoops - just dried it out and no problem. I have left it on for ages and I watch video files from it daily since I got it - it works like the day I got it. I think this is one of the best item I bought ever.

Summary: Shoddy quality... poor performance
Comment: Just under 12 months use, drive completely packed up. Not a power issue, simple device failure.

Given that I bought this on the strength of the brand to provide a long lasting backup solution, this product has failed to give good service.

Summary: a different problem
Comment: i have not had any power problems with this drive, this problem i have had is that any file size over roughly 4.5gb will simply not go on this drive. every time i have tried to put on a file over the size of 4.5gb the drive will not allow it. i bought this drive to back up my video work, and being as these files use much memory space - i quite often have file sizes over 4.5gb - it renders this drive pretty useless for me. otherwise this drive does the job for my mac powerbook

Summary: Another Power Failure
Comment: When I first purchased the Western Digital 250GB 7200RPM USB 2.0 Essential External Hard Drive it froze and failed within 2 months. Luckily WD replaced the drive and everything was fine for a little over a year. Then just as I purchased another storage drive to be sure to back up this one. A week later my Western Digital 250GB 7200RPM USB 2.0 Essential External Hard Drive won't power on at all. The cord even looks like it is on with a green LED box in the middle but nothing. I was actually using this to back up all my work files and using it to run ALL of my IPOD itune files. I'll be lucky to recover anything and it is not covered under warranty.
