disappointing

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It was pretty cheap and didnt seem to be easily breakable.
Cons: Started clicking 2 days after i got it. I've now had it about 3 or 4 months and the clicking is LOUD. I use it mostly for video storage and although ive seen it transfer data at 30MB/s, it usually lingers between 3-5 MB/s, which is a complete and total disappointment. Currently i have nothing open in my pc besides this browser and an explorer window and its telling me its going to take 2 hours and 33 minutes to move 6 GB...
Other Thoughts: Dispite how much i like WD, this isn't a good drive.

30 minutes for 30 gigs

Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: The drive enclosure looks solid, the transfer speed for USB is pretty good too, took me 30 minutes to transfer 30 gigs of files. The black color of the unit goes well with the rubber pads on both ends. The hard drive seems to ventilate properly, because after 30 minutes of transferring files it is still just as hot and not hotter. USB cable Included
Cons: I heard a click a few times at some point, it may or may have not come from the drive, owning it for 1 day it does not sound like a good thing. I personally do not like Power adapters or anything extra attached this type of peripheral The power adapter is standard size, not the slim types that allow you to squeeze in other plugs. The indicator LED (blue) for drive usage is in the rear of the hard drive near the power cable, where you will hardly ever look.
Other Thoughts: Temperature wise the drive enclosure feels slightly warmer than my hand, I am not sure if it is a positive or a negative thing, because i do not know the true temperature of the drive in the enclosure, the enclosure comes with rubber ends on both sides which i believe is to reduce shock to the drive, i do believe they may not help and at the same time they also look removable which is a good thing.
