Western Digital My Book Essential Edition 1 TB Hard Drive Reviews
I am very pleased with it. I had a 750gb hard drive that I used for this but it was very noisy. It's a great hard drive. I bought this hard drive to store my home videos.
I liked it so much that I bought a second one to store all of my CD's on. I loved the quietness of this one. It is fast and quiet. My son, who works for a computer company that does IT work for small businesses used it to back-up a hard drive from a company that he was working on and re-formatting and he was impressed with the speed of this Western Digital hard drive.
I bought this from Amazon and it is the best external hardrive that I have found up to now. Also its a really great price for a TB.
The hard drive works exactly as it is supposed to. I read the reviews and decided based on reputation.
then, a large file that couldn't be broken up jammed the thing and i gave up. it's lovely to look at, and small, but unfortunately ill-designed for what i would imagine to be it's primary purposemoving large amounts of data for backup. i bought this to consolidate several smaller drives i have lying about onto one master backup, and i had serious trouble with the drive. transferring large folders or files would cause it to have "unknown errors" (of course, after nearly an hour of sitting there) every time, so i was reduced to moving things one at a time. for the record, the same files were easily transferred to and from 2 other drives i hadsimply not this one. thinking that somehow it could be my computer, i brought the drive in to my office, but experienced the same issues there.
I highly regret this purchase.
It literally shuts itself off during use multiple times per day. I've contacted Western Digital over the issue they sent me patch which did nothing.
I would suggest staying with the 500gb drives. I mean right in the middle of opening and/or saving files.
I don't mean after long periods of non-use. I've owned multiple 500gb My Book external drives with no problem.
The 1 TB external drive has given me problems since the beginning.
