Customer Reviews
I can't warn users enough about the fragility and lack of durability of this HD. I had to find out the hard way that these HDs are poorly constructed and if you upset them in the slightest, your data will be GONE with virtually no way to have it repaired. A couple of months ago, my foot got tangled in the cord and the HD took a light tumble on plush carpet from a height of a little over 12 inches.That was the end of my HD and a lot of my one of a kind data that I had ported over to it. Gone. Kaput.Certainly, there is no expectation for HDs to take serious beatings but the poor construction and lack of durability on this Western Digital model is terrible. After I lost all my data, I googled and found that there are MANY others like me who have lost their precious data with this product. Repair is not an option because even at the 'diagnostic' costs of over $1,000, there's no guarantee that they will be able to fix anything. I took mine to a specialty PC shop and tried to get it fixed but the technician (owner) told me it was toast due to the way these are built (apparently a lack of access to the drives).So BEWARE.
this external hard drive comes with added programs that i neither asked for nor wanted also very complicated set up that took over 5 hours."do not buy" very dissappointed !!

This hard drive is quite a good value. Although, it didn't install properly at first, the problem eventually fixed itself and now it works fine. The hard drive turns on and off with your computer which is nice. Also, it doesn't really have 320GB, it's only 298GB in reality. Nonetheless, it is still a good deal I think, and it works well.

Seamless integration with existing systems, great for backing up critical data and hard-to-replace multi-media files from hard drive. "He who laughs last had backup."
