5 out of 5 stars Small and very convenient   December 4, 2008
I needed a way to share files between multiple computers,, both Windows and Linux. This works beautifully. It provides generous file storage. It is small enough to fit easily in a laptop carrying bag, and it fits easily on the desktop.


4 out of 5 stars Only a few things to make it better ...   December 3, 2008
... like putting a connection light/status light on the opposite end of the drive, instead of the end where the cord goes in. Why? Because the USB cord is so short that you can't necessarily see a status light unless you turn the drive to face you. The only other thing I struggle with is that it doesn't seem to connect through a USB expansion port (despite both being USB 2.0).

Other than that, it's pretty cool, sleek, and the pre-loaded software has worked as indicated. Thumbs up all around.



5 out of 5 stars My 3rd WD Passport and still going strong!   December 3, 2008
This is my 3rd of these Western Digital Passport drives, they are great! Have not had any problems with the older version of the passport. They run quiet and are very reliable. I used to carry the old clunky 3.5" external drives with the heavy power supply, now I can carry all my data without breaking my back.

Just in my experience, WD drives are very dependable, I tend to stay away from Maxtor who has failed me 3x.



5 out of 5 stars The right stuff   December 2, 2008
the Passport suits my intended use .I bought it to back up all my files and it worked like a charm .should any of my drives fail or my computer crash ,I still have everything on the WD Passport.It's a good feeling.

5 out of 5 stars Does what a hard drive should   December 2, 2008
Picked this up for use as a backup disc for a MacBook using Apple's Time Machine. Runs flawlessly off bus power directly from the laptop. Running without a hitch for nearly 3 months at this point and warrantied for 3 years. Sleek, small, convenient. Have several WD externals and no complaints yet. Well worth it.
