Customer Reviews:
good value for money (beware file size restriction tho!)
- Works well
- Simple installation (no disc needed)
- Good value for money in terms of hard drive space
- Easy Usage (just drag or copy paste like any computer folder
- Reasonably fast write speed

(PS: just a shame about the hard drive file type: it doesn't support files larger than 4GB because its not NTFS so if ur planing to load it with High definition movies then its a bit of a bummer)

Apart from that I would recommend

Very pleased
Very pleased with this product (only had it a few weeks though). I use it with my PS3 and PC and would recommend it.

The main reason I got this was to watch all of my movie collection on my PS3 which so far it has done without any problems at all.

A lot of people are saying the write to speeds are slow but I don't think they are too bad, I'm averaging about 13-15Mb/sec when adding movies. The drive itself is very quiet!

No need to format this drive if you want to use it with the PS3 just plug it in and its on :)

Only disadvantage so far is the power supply lead is quite short(only about 1m long) but not a major problem!

Overall I would recommend this product you get a lot of value for your money

Extra space!
It does what it says on the tin! 1Tb of space to move stuff off your hard drive. Job done, laptop appreciates it.

11 Months And Counting...
I'm always extremely sceptical with reading reviews for things like external hard drives on Amazon, because I worry that a lot of the five-star reviews are people who have found it works out of the box and within maybe a week or two it hasn't died on them. Frankly, I don't class that as five-star quality, but more an expected basic standard when I'm paying upwards of £60 for something. If a review basically says little more than "it's not broken" then I at least want to know they've been using the product for a while, which usually isn't stated.

So this is a review of this product which I bought last Christmas (mine is actually a silver one, but I presume it's pretty much the same), and have therefore had for 11 months now. I've filled it with roughly 700GB of stuff, it's been plugged into my laptop a fair bit, especially during term time at University when it's on whenever my laptop is (so for a good 10 hours a day at least), and (fingers crossed I don't jinx this) it's yet to give me any bother.

I'd advise anyone looking to put HD movies on it (so most people, because it's the main reason for such a large drive really) should format it to NTFS straight out of the box, assuming they use Windows. If not, the convert.exe Windows utility (Google it) can switch it later on without needing to wipe the drive, but it's better to do it before you've filled it with 500GB of stuff as I had.

So yeah, it's been nearly a year since I got it, and it's been faithful so far and reliable at storing everything I've needed it to. It's pretty quiet (I can hear it less than my internal laptop drive), it has quite a discreet operating light, and it's survived the occasional accidental unplug without losing any data. Transferring large volumes of data does take time, but anyone expecting to transfer 50GB of data instantaneously is being a little bit over-optimistic, and I've never found the transfer times prohibitive.

Five star review for a product which has been thoroughly tested at the time of writing and will hopefully continue to be for years to come.

wd 1tb
its mind blowing how much video you can fit on one of these. iv got well over 1000 hours on mine so far and thers still a few 100 gb of free space left. that said i plan to buy another soon so il never have to delete any video again. also going to buy a wd tv media player so i can watch all my video iv got saved on here on my tv. one last thing to add, make sure you use the 12v plug that it comes with in the box. useing another will stop it from working over time.
