Between me and my wife we own three WD Passports. I've been waiting for them to finally come out with a 500gb drive and it does not disappoint. It's bus powered for everyone's convenience. Enjoy it. I'm actually debating on buying a second 500gb.

I bought this drive because I saw one that my friend owned. LOVED IT. The software is for people that need to "sink" up their data on multiple computers. I just did not install the software and use the hard drive as an external hard drive. It is wonderful! Small, easy to use. The USB cable is a little short but for most cases that is just fine. I have not tried it with a longer cable yet. I have actually already dropped the drive and it had NO impact. All my data was just fine. I bought a small neoprene case to carry it around and works great. Just can't say enough about this.

This review is from: 500GB 2.5" USB Drive-Blue (Electronics)
Recently, I had to get a new computer, and it came with the newer Windows Vista, instead of the XP I was used to. I had an older portable hard drive, and had a lot of problems with it as far as being able to acccess it. Western Digital has always been a top name in hard drives (I've had several over the years), so I decided to try one of theirs. This drive not only solved all of my problems that I'd had, it was faster by far than my old one. It's small enough to carry around in your pocket, and automatically links up to any computer I plug it into. I've been able to take all my files with me to show pictures to people at work, or my friends, with no problems at all. If you need extra space, or a back-up for your main drive, you can't beat this hard drive for ease of use, speed, or price. Highly recommend!
