Western Digital My Book Office Edition 1 TB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive WDH1B10000N

I bought this poduct a few months ago & still having problems with it. I could not transfer any file over 150GB with out it crashing & stoping. I had 2 turn it off & on 2 get it 2 reboot. It is slow in the search 4 anything on the disk you are looking for. evertime i want 2 use it it is down so i have 2 restart & reboot the drive at least twice a dayI i paid full price 4 it & hate it. I am ready 2 keep all the info on my computer 4 the network I have set up. Will try 2 find something better. i do not recomend this 2 anyone.

This is my 3rd MyBook external HD & it improves on the performance & space of my other versions. The person who gave it a negative review either has a bad drive (it happens) or did not re-format the drive 2 NTFS. It does take a bit of time 2 format 2 NTFS (about 1 hour & 30 minutes), however it is worth it 4 you have a faster more efficient hard drive.

I bought this piece of junk 4 about $200. I just wanted 2 do a simple backup of my other extrernal hard drive. First install of the software wiped out my computer. I went 2 another computer & installed the upgrade, which is free, but it will not take your "key" number. So you have 2 uninstall it, put the original version in & then upgrade. Only one problem, you can't uninstall the upgrade. This horrible thing will not back up file with long file names, PERIOD. It comes formatted fat32, right. So you have 2 reformat it. How long do you think it would take 2 back up 170gb 2 this 1t? Try 4 days & counting with over 300 errors. I will try 2 call customer "support". But as we all know, you're lucky if you get a person that has a fundemental grasp of the English language. I'll be on hold forever & none will have a clue on how 2 fix the problem. If you're looking 4 new & inventive ways 2 develop headaches, this tool is perfect.

This product is quiet, low heat output & has a small footprint. The only thing I would improve on this is the seek time. It could be a bit faster. But, 4 the money, this is an excellent buy.
