Editorial Reviews:

This elegant external hard drive, reminiscent of a book, is the perfect storage solution. It takes no more space than a paperback book. Collect two or more and they nest neatly together like volumes on a shelf. Installation is a snap because you don't really install this drive, you just plug it in and it's ready to use. A USB 2.0 simple connection offers convenience and compatibility among multiple computers. Dimensions - Height 6.5 x Length 5.4 x Width 2.1 Weight - 2.5 Pounds

Summary: Failed after a year - DO NOT BUY IT.
Comment: This drive failed after one year. I lost a lot of personal and financial data that is not recoverable.

It was not abused. Sat on a desk for the most part. No power outages. It died during a write access for a financial program.

This is the second WD drive I have die on my in a year of use. (I had blamed myself for the first one, but maybe this is the just the way these drives are built.)

Back to paper for the financial reports. They don't need batteries.

Summary: My Book
Comment: These are nice units and easy to use. One day when I turned it on it just disappeared. I tried everything but it was still not seen in My Computer or Explorer. So I formatted it. If you format them to NTFS and assign a drive letter before using it you shouldn't have the problem of it disappearing.

Summary: Stay away from it
Comment: My WD drive failed after a couple months...never did any damage to it. One day, it wasn't recognized by my PC and when I powered it down and turned it back on, the clicking noises began.
