I couldn't find what I needed at any of the big box stores. I ordered through Amazon and requested standard (free) delivery. Delivery took 10 days. Drive arrived in good shape. It was exactly what I needed. Runs good - no problemo.

I have 450Gb of irreplaceable pictures and personal stuff on this drive. I was pulling a few last bits from a shared drive when i got these error messages on all of the files, i canceled the files tried to access the drive and i get a message something like "a USB device is connected" but i can't see the HDD. I tried several different pc's, powered on and off a dozen times, and pretty much every combination of plugging/unplugging you can imagine many times over. It was never dropped or mishandled in anyway and i get a repetitious buzzing sound for about 45 seconds then nothing. Hopefully the small tech store down the road can access or repair the drive and rescue my data. It was a great drive until 8 days of ownership and it stopped working. I would send it back to WD but then my personal info is everybody's info. Kind of a catch 22 on HDD repairs/returns, no money back, your data is lost, but no one else can see what you have either. I guess if i can't have it then no one will.

I purchased this product in 7/2007 as a backup storage device for my mac mini (duo core). It worked as expected until 11/2007, at which time it nearly ruined my computer by causing it to over heat. I verified this cause at the apple store, using their diagnostic devices. I have purchased since then two different WD My Books (professional model) and am very pleased with them. I RECOMMEND NOT GETTING THIS PRODUCT!

A good choice especially considering the price at which it is being offered.I had heard that its somewhat noisy - so far nothing of that sort. Hope it continues so!

Great product. Works great with my MacBook and Mac OS X Leopard's Time Machine. Easy setup: no manual needed. Love the Firewire cable included. I only have two USB ports, so the firewire cable is quite handy (there's a USB cable in the box, as well).

So far this has been great, and has helped immensely to free up space on my computer. I did forget to reformat to that version that lets you transfer massive files over (I forget what it's called, but I'm sure other people here have mentioned it, and it's described in the brief manual as well); Once I reformatted though things have worked fine, and it's been a nice place to keep my hard drive in case something happens.I just hope it lasts.

I have 3 of these now all purchased at different times, the last one over 6 months ago. All 3 have been working fine. They are quiet enough and I like the fact that they turn themselves off with the PC. The price is right too.You need to remember that all your important data should be stored in more than one place. This applies no matter what storage device you are using.

The drive performs as expected and the price was great. It makes a good "online archive" of data from our server that doesn't need to consume RAID disk space.

I purchased this drive on October 28, by Nov. 15 it was no longer functioning. I purchased the drive to use as music storage -- spent dozens of hours digitizing 400+ albums. the drive became corrupted and impossible to restore without spending mucho dinero. The Western Digital service site is a disgrace. I have owned Maxtor and Seagates, I'll never purchase another WD.

Simple and easy to use. Stores all my music, photos and others. A really good purchase. It has all the drivers already installed, all you have to do is plug it in and it sets itself up. It turns on and off with your computer. Having it keeps my computer running really quickly, and I have the piece of mind that my pictures are safe from computer glitches.It is compact and doesn't take up much room on my desk. A good product to have.

Purchased this drive as a mirror backup for a same drive. Unlike the other drive, the front button on this one is not pushable. Otherwise it works fine.

I've owned many an external drive in my time... pretty straightforward-- you turn it on, it is recognized by the computer, you do your thing, you turn it off. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to the "on" switch on this thing works! Turning it off is fine, but I usually have to unplug it to turn it back on. Apparently there is some kind of "button software" that goes along with it (which i downloaded from WD) to no avail. Why the unnecessary complication? Like I got time for this crap.And what's with the cheap plastic case? You can get a metal case hard drive for the same price. Looks nice in the picture, but trust me it's kinda junky in person...

This is a great product. Im very happy with it. Its refurbished, but It looks like new and it works like new. What i like about this product is that its not big at all. I thought it was going to take a lot of space in my desk and the price is good too. perfect buy!

I had one of these, and was planning to add another to my system (which does have two separate USB hubs). My Windows XP computer can only recognize one at a time. I talked to Tech support, and the guy actually suggested that I buy a different brand. I wish I had bought a Maxtor One Touch. Don't buy this.

Western Digital WDH1U5000N 500GB My Book Essential External Hard Drive runs in low temp, quiet, auto on/off with computer, fast, and cheap ($120 from circuit city in late April, 07). All was well till yesterday, Nov 28, 2007. The drive is still showing up, but not the content. All diagnostics reported no error. It still goes on and off with my computer (HP Media Center XP from Dec 06). Even the amount of free space is still showing up correctly. But not my 400G photos! What a waste! Will try "A.K. from Texas"'s trick (in his separate review in Feb 2007). But I haven't switched anything, or dropped the drive or any of that. Same power supply, same everything. Just the drive stopped displaying its content.Avoid if you can. Tech support is mostly a joke of all products, maybe save of Lexus cars. And I won't get a replacement from WD so I can go through the same pain again later on. Will try to get the data out and just throw it away for good so nobody else got tripped on a refurbished drive in the future.Will try VanTec case if nothing else works.

No complaints with this product. Amazon prime is great for the 2-day shipping alone. Timely delivery by Amazon. Plug and play....because I'm using it with a Mac, not sure how it works on a PC machine.

Mine lasted a whole 7 weeks. I tried calling Western Digital and gave up after 40 mins. Sent an email...never got a response. Do not be fooled by the cheap price...you get what you pay for in this case. And the USB really is significantly slower than fire wire.

I owned one of these without issue for about 4 months and decided to buy another (same size, same model) to double my external capacity.The new drive's firewire ports (both of them) didn't work. When I exchanged it for a new one, same thing - both firewire ports defective. You can't chalk this up to user error because I own an identical drive and troubleshooted everything on both drives (cross-testing them on different computers, tested the cables, power supplies, etc. etc.) and no dice - it's the ports.One faulty drive I'd chalk up to bad luck, but twice in a row is no coincidence. I'm getting rid of these drives (BOTH of them) because I don't want to trust my precious data to hardware that's habitually bad. I suggest looking at a different company. This isn't the first time I've had issues with a Western Digitial drive.

I sat it next to the computer and then began backing-up my folders. I did this successfully once a month for several months. Yesterday it stopped working. That's it...it just doesn't work. It is getting no power at all. I have moved it around the room and plugged it in to other outlets to no avail. There was no power surge, no thunderstorm, no dropping..nothing to explain what the heck happened to it. I cannot recommend this hard drive even if it does look "mahvelous".

I've heard some complaints about this line of external drives, so let me address those first. Yes, there is a slight "hum" or high frequency vibration. But I have several of these drives in different capacities and some hum a little, some not so much. Bottom line is that the noise is neither distracting nor bothersome. Besides, don't you get a little worried when any machine goes dead silent? Okay, now to the good stuff. Though designed as an "archival" device, I have streamed digital video from these drives full screen onto a Mac 23" widescreen monitor with no problems. I've used both USB versions and Firewire and both work fine. I've also run them for tens of hours at a stretch with no problems -- when not used they drop into "sleep mode". I suggest reformatting the drive if you use it on a Mac. This will make it compatible with the Mac's file system. It's easy and takes a couple of seconds. Also works with PCs just fine. The published capacity is misleading -- so what's new in the world, eh? If you buy a 320GB drive and are sweating a couple of gig, well... The obvious caveats: Don't bang or drop it -- especially when it's running. Always dismount it in the proper sequence.

I bought this external HD in December 2006. Now in November 2007, the unit clicks and clicks and clicks LOUDLY! My computer recognizes that the hardware is attached but does not show the drive in my computer so I can't even use the stupid thing!I didn't buy at Amazon. I wish I didn't buy it at all.
