happy
- Pros: I'm happy with it, fast transfers, tons of storage space and a fair price. Western digital is really the ONLY option of an external drive.
- Cons: haha, no.
Good drive for the money
- Pros: Purchased this drive a while back when my Seagate drive (a 7200.10 500GB) started getting SMART errors and I needed to copy off files. This drive came through for me and offered a fast USB copy though I couldn't get all the files off in time (but got the ones that mattered). recovering a disk with a physical issue costs $1500 on the low end.
With my particular setup I get around 30MB /sec copy speed. I purchased an additional drive so that I could mirror it (using a simple xcopy batch file script to do nightly backups).
- Cons: The drive takes a little bit to spin up sometimes. The second one doesn't seem to have that issue, and the blue LED light is slightly brighter. Makes me wonder how good the quality is, and how long my drive will last.
- Other Thoughts: Seems to be a pretty good drive overall, no issues so far. I would recommend it, but buy 2 just to be on the safe side- you don't want to depend on a single drive for all your data. Don't learn the hard way like I did!
- Pros: Works great! I've partitioned this into 5 partitions so I can ghost 4 computers and use the 5th for easy windows transfer when changing Operating Systems.
- Cons: None so far after 4 to 5 months of use.
