Western Digital WDMER2500TN My PassPort Essential 250GB USB 2.0 Portable Hard Drive [Posted on 2008-11-12] It's a nice external hard drive. I like it.
At the same time you need to remember that this USB drive is not as fast as a typical internal hard drive.
Nice little package [Posted on 2008-11-12] The reason why I got this item was because I needed to backup my PS3 data, since I'm upgrading the hard drive on the system. As soon as I opened it, I just plugged it in and that's all. No need to install software or anything. I was surprised at how small and light this drive is and it was nice to have something so simple to use. Perfect for what I needed it. This thing took about 30min to copy about 20G of data which, and I'll be honest, I'm not sure if its good or bad, but there you go.
Why buy this one if there are a lot far better choices! [Posted on 2008-11-13] I would not reccommend this one to any people. I had suffered from so much inconvience.
First is its speed, its max speed is 13MB/s, however my two years old 40GB portable hard drive is about 20MB/s, not even mention nowadays portable hard drive can easily exceeds 30MB/s. Then is its crappy backup software, I simply reformat this hard drive.
Another big inconvience is the usb cord is way too short, only 15 inches, especially when you want to connect to desktop.
I will not forgot to tell you it does not come with a carrying case, considering this hard drive is made of plastic.
Actually you can find far better ones with faster speed, convienct usb connection, and come with all neccessary accessories, so why buy this one which only gives you trouble from time to time.
Great little external harddrive [Posted on 2008-11-14] I removed the software and manually manage all my files for this hard drive. I use it as a main drive for my music and photos. The small size is great for throwing in my purse or pocket as I take it with me all the time to rip music for my friends' computers.
