Unique ID isn’t unique
This is an OK enclosure to invest in if you are positive that you will never need more than one, but if you ever plan to add another, beware. MacAlly ships every unit with the exact same internal GUID, in violation of the FireWire standard. The GUID is supposed to [...]

Quiet, Fast, 3 yr Warranty
I have an aging win2k pro machine that has the C: drive on an 8 G partitian. The Sims did the computer in - we are constantly struggling with disk space. So, I bought this beauty and downloaded a wonderful utility called Casper (not the demo version, downloads.com). [...]

May be the “green” drive to get right now
If you’re looking for a low power drive, the Western Digital WD10EADS is one of the best options currently. It has by far the lowest idle and active power consumption statistics. That, not surprisingly, helps it run cooler than other drives as well.
There is some [...]

Great drive, less guilt!
I just got this drive so I could backup all my music and pictures and so far I love it! I researched this drive and was quite happy to see all the steps the company took to reduce waste and power consumption. Its not quite as attractive as it looks in the [...]

Works great - at first
The FreeAgent is everything great that NEW buyers say it is. Lots of storage and a snap to set up. The problem is (and I’m about to return my second one) - the defect rate is pretty high. After about six weeks of use (just sitting on my [...]

A GREAT STORAGE DEVICE
Normally I don’t write reviews for all of the products I buy, but based on the bad reviews that people have given the drobo, I felt I needed to offset some of the unfair & misleading comments.
I have had this drobo for about a month. I have had very little interaction [...]

Great idea, lousy description. This thing is insanely LOUD.
I totally have to agree with the earlier reviewer who mentioned the noise level on this thing. The box, the site, the descriptions all take great pains to describe this as a whisper-quiet, fanless system. They are all wrong. The thing is like having a 747 start [...]

Amazing performance…
I bought this for my late 2008 MacBook 13″ since it was about half the price of the Apple upgrade and it has performed beyond expectation. I thought It would be a similar performer compared to the included standard 160GB drive considering the pausing reported by others. Instead it completely transformed the performance of [...]

This drive does EXACTLY What It Says It Will
I have several other Western Digital MyBook directly attached drives and am very happy with them. This drive was purchased by a friend (at my suggestion) and sent to me for setup.
The installation instructions do leave a lot to be desired. I had [...]

Must have!
This item is one of those things that is built to last and performs flawlessly. I haven’t had a single problem with this hard drive. The setup is easy and I haven’t had one problem downloading to or uploading files to my computer while using it. It has no noise and looks great!
Update [...]
