I was way overdue to make this purchase, and I am very pleased having finally made the investment. My husband and I take many pictures resulting in MANY downloaded onto my computer to deal with. I have had a fear of losing them, and this is a better answer than downloading them all onto discs. It is pretty self explanatory in its set up. Quick and easy to use and transport. I have also downloaded document and music folders to it, temporarily. Eventually, I want to have two more smaller external hard drive specifically for those different folders, because we will need most of the space on our 320 GB for pictures. I highly recommend getting one, especially to those who do photography of any level.

i love this hard drive the people at wallmart didn't think it would work for the playstation 3 because it isn't a real computer.but i bought it anyway and plugged it in to my playstation 3 and it worked.i didn't have to install anything.i use this hard drive to store music photos and movies.while my game data stays on my playstation 3 hard drive.and i used this hard drive to backup my data so i could install YDL on my playstation 3.this is a great hard drive i recommend it to anyone.

I just want to write and let the world know what kind of company this is. I have owned 3 Western digital (WD) hard drives. All 3 have not lasted longer then 2 years, the most recent has only lasted 1 yr.. 4 months. But the kicker of this situation is the external hard drive WD make have a warranty of 1 year. but the internal Hard drives that are inside the units have a 3-5 year warranty. So I called WD because the hard drive inside the case went bad. So this is how the call went.
The phone rang, and I got contacted to someone over sea's and could barely speak english. I told him my problem and he said sorry it's out of warranty and there is nothing he could do. So i said the hard drive inside the unit has a 3 year warranty. he said well you bought the external hard drive so you only get a 1 year warranty. I was going no where with him so I asked to speak to a manager.
Mind you it's bad enough I lost all my info, but now I couldn't get a replacement. so the manager comes on and says there is nothing he can do. I said to him because I buy the complete package the WD makes I get punished. and if i went out and bought a internal hard drive and put it in a case i'd get a 3-5 year warranty? he responded back, yea. I said dont you think this is a little unfair? and he said sorry. So then trying to be slick I said ok so what if I take the Hard drive out will i get the 3-5 year warranty? he said no you'll void the warranty because they marry the case and the hard drive as 1 unit so they know the hard drive came out of it. But his way of solving the situation he said is they offer a service to recover the data, I asked how much does that cost. he said about $3k. I asked to talk to his manager and he sad it would take 48 hours for them to call me back. (still waiting)
Long story short, if you are interested in buying a western digital I recommend buying a internal hard drive and putting it in a case which are very cheap. Just search external hard drive case, and tons will pop up. by doing this you'll get a real warranty.
I hope this helps others from getting screwed. Good luck
