2.0 out of 5 stars This died less than 6 months after buying it, October 28, 2007

This review is from: WDXMS1600BN Western Digital Passport Portable USB 160GB Hard Drive (Personal Computers)
I loved this USB drive when it was working. It provided lots of storage and quick access time. However, even after safely removing it each time and taking care of the drive, it went bad. I have not been able to salvage the date. Western Digital offered to replace it if I sent it back but that doesn't help me much with the data loss. I also don't want to pay shipping to send it back with my data possibly still on it and then have to worry about the replacement going bad as well.

This review is from: WDXMS1600BN Western Digital Passport Portable USB 160GB Hard Drive (Personal Computers)
This drive worked great as long as it worked -- and then suddenly it stopped working. None of the troubleshooting or support on the manufacturer's site helped -- and I cannot get this replaced since Western Digital India does not stock this product. I bought this on a visit to the US.
