Big and Fast
- Pros: It's about 3 times the size of the last Passport drive I bought and that was only a little over a year ago. Unlink my previous Passport, this one is fast when it's formatted as NTFS. The previous one acted like it had to buffer writes before it committed them.
- Cons: It isn't really 750 gigs, it's 698 gigs. I understand with flash drives that's to be expected since the flash controller has to allocate space of its own on the drive in order to keep track of all the block states, but still, they shouldn't include that amount of space in the listed specs since you can't actually use it. But I'm not blaming Newegg for this discrepancy, no I blame WD.
- Other Thoughts: Guess I should've looked at the picture more closely because the drive itself is not black, it's grey. Oh well. I'm still quite satisfied with the drive. Huge improvement over its predecessor.
Sweet!
- Pros: It's huge
- Cons: none so far
As Expected from WD
- Pros: Small, Quite, fast reads.. USB Powered and High Capacity.
I formatted it to NTFS to accommodate Large Video Files (5GB and Up -- 1080p Video) using a Windows Vista PC. I am using it now on my Laptop running Windows 7, It works with no problems. Someone else reported that the drive did not work on Windows 7 Maybe is due to FAT32 but I did not checked that before reformatting to NTFS..
- Cons: None....
But It would had been nice if they had included a case or the very least a simple pouch... Maybe next time :)
