 Not reliable March 19, 2010

My first review, motivated out of anger.
I agree this hard drive is an excellent hard drive, so good, i bought three of them over a relatively short period of time. One from two online, one offline. I already had another WD before, though that one failed. Well this can happen so I did not really care, so I stuck with the brand, as except for the failure of my two years old 500 gb, i liked it.
By now all my WD drives have failed. This is very inconvenient as these are my work/company backups. There is no virus or any other bogus on there. WD failed me four times, with a failure rate of 100% for everything i ever bought from them. I agree it is nice and shiny, but reliability is for anyone who is doing serious backups, not just fun files a disaster.
DO NOT BUY THIS!
Cheers~
 After several months of use, still going great! March 18, 2010

I have owned this little passport for several months now and it is still going strong. I primarily use it on my MacBook Pro as my Time Machine backup drive. It's small and light enough to carry with me in my computer bag, so I always have my backup device with me. I have had to go back 4 months in my Time Machine backups to recover a file, and the Passport's data integrity was fine. With prices coming down so much, I would recommend a 1 TB drive in case you want to take movies,etc. along with you and so that you have a longer Time Machine window. Will definitely buy another WD Passport drive when I grow out of this one.
Awesome March 17, 2010

I want to tell to everyone that is looking for a media device to storage files, that the Passport 250 from Western Digital is an excellent device for these purposes. I bought one from Amazon.com almost two years ago, and now is the time when I am doing the revision of this product, because i was testing it, and really I have recorded all my importants files on it (Music, videos, photos, etc) and is excellent, works perfect in the laptop (Dell Inspiron) and I have plenty of room to storage many files. With this device, you can empty the hard drive of your machine and record or make a copy o these in the Passport, so your machine or laptor can run faster and perform better work, I recommend this product, for me, particularly is a good media storage, great capacity, reliable, easy to use, all my music, one of my most valuables files is there of course, I have more than five years collecting music from varies epocs or generations and this is very importan for me, because i love the music, it is my favorite pass time. Great product from Western Digital.

I love my new external HDD. Is very small, compact and has plenty of space to store your data. No issues so far.
