It's a HDD

Pros: SATA 2nd Generation and cheap
Cons: small capacity
Overall Review: WD is one of the best manufactures out there. This thing has last through several formattings and partitionings. No problems yet, I use it in a PC with a 500 GB for all my media and project files while this one houses all my programs and my OS.
not the best

Pros: cheap, metal mostly, works
Cons: if you plan on taking HDDs in and out of this thing expect it to fall apart. the ends are cheap plastic, not metal. feels kinda cheap. but it works so cant really complain too much.
Overall Review: not bad for the price.
Buy it...

Pros: small, light weight, very portable, big enough for pretty much everything as long as you maintain your files, no external power supply, fits in PSP cases perfect lol
Cons: none really, my PC doesnt like it but thats its problem not the hard drive, my usbs dont put out enough power even with both ends of the Y cable plugged in.
Overall Review: to the other reviewer that didnt get a cable, thats a bummer im sorry to hear you didnt get one. mine came with a cable. alright stop reading my review and buy it already lol
good for the price

Pros: large screen, HDMI, 1080p, looks awesome, touch buttons are very nice, very unique, no ghosting, I don't see any lag but I'm not an extreme hardcore gamer, pretty good price at the time its Deactivated now but I'm sure you can find them else where.
Cons: there is a part on the left side of case where the back light comes through but you be too drawn into whatever you are doing you wont care. buttons can be a little temperamental(see below). tilt back, the stand design for this is ok I'm tall so it really doesn't matter for me, but beware if you sit at or below your monitor right now I'd figure something out. I may later on built a custom stand for this idk if your good at that kind of thing have at it. not really a con but dvds no longer look good lol on this thing i see all their flaws XD
Overall Review: the buttons are very picky, I've found that when they stop responding just wait a few seconds then touch them again, and don't press them fast, press them at a slow steady pace. it pays to be a little patient. I have my pc and PS3 hooked up to this, for someone who isn't use to HD this is amazing! If you can find one for around 150ish I'd buy it. besides the stand this monitor has no cons. oh and one last thing as far as building a custom stand there is only one bolt in the back, but if made right that's all you need
Good enough

Pros: runs everything(see below), passive cooling, good card for the price
Cons: a bit hot(see below), takes up two PCI slots but so does the higher dollar ones, passive cooling, Photoshop CS4 doesn't like something about it(can't remember right now what) but Photoshop still works, S-Video doesn't work very well with TVs
Overall Review: It can run Crysis and Crysis Warhead, Crysis on Low and Warhead on Medium, Fallout 3 on Medium but I run it on low for slightly better performance, Portal maxed out, Halo maxed out, Assassin's Creed Medium(I think, can't recall). It runs about 150 F, but I do live in a desert. I rigged a fan to keep it cooler, now it runs about 130ish F. But it's a lousy fan so a better fan would cool it better. S-Video on TVs is not that good looking, it takes a bit of tweaking in the NVIDIA Control Panel. Oh and get the latest drivers too.
Great product

Pros: small, durable, big capacity, cheap
Cons: maybe too small? lol, can be hard to put in the back of a computer
Overall Review: I had the gold model of this but it died when I installed an OS on comp with it plugged in. (heads up for all you out there don't do that!) Forgot to unplug it, whoops! But it had lasted me over a year with no probs. Just to let you know it doesn't transfer as fast as they say, it's fast but just not that fast.
